Again, WebRTC does not "barf" out your real IP in a VPN situation -- it barfs out the VPN's internal IP, which is meaningless to anyone except for the VPN's operator (and they have that data anyway).

Your actual, ISP-assigned IP remains hidden to any site you visit.

I thought it would provide every IP address held by the system, which would include both the internal VPN IP address and your actual ISP-provided IP address.
