What I doubt is this nonsense about not having to register with a service. You can not magically just find a remote IP address to route your video connection to, without a third party. And THAT is where the attack comes in.
With Skype & Hangouts, you have to register an account and connect through it. With Firefox Hello you only talk to the server to set up a URL for your connection. The actual call is direct peer to peer. You do not have to join anything, but you can if you wish. Everything is over SSL/TLS.
I have Firefox 34.0.5 and I don't see anything that looks like "Hello" or any other communications thing. What am I missing?
If I found Hello, and want to speak to my friend, who is 40 miles away, and runs Windows 7 and Mac before OS-X--i.e., a non-Intel machine--what would we have to do? (Assuming he also has ver.34.)
Thanx--doug
Follow the direction here: <http://www.disruptivetelephony.com/2014/12/how-to-test-firefox-hello-mozillas-new-webrtc-video-call-service.html> When you want to set up a connection, you click on "Hello" to get a URL, which you send to your friend. They then lick on the URL and go from there. Windows 7 is no problem, but I don't know about that old MAC. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
