Hi Ashley, thanks for the report.
Contrary to Chrome and Firefox, we do not leak private IP addresses access unless camera or microphone access is also granted.

You can use the Debug menu (see https://webkit.org/debugging-webkit/ to use "defaults write" magic to make it appear). Then you can go to "Media Flags" and check "Disable ICE candidate filtering". Once these options are set, make sure to create a new tab so that these options are propagated properly.

https://webrtc.github.io/samples/src/content/datachannel/basic/ does not work without this change but works with this change.

Would be great if you can test that and report the results.
