Is Netflix Party safe?
Netflix Party starts camera and microphone WebRTC sharing when the party UI opens.
When the party interface opens on Netflix, the extension injects its Netflix script and requests access to the camera and microphone. It uses that audio and video stream in PeerJS calls with connected peers after joining the room through its Socket.IO server.
