This is already exposed for http://wicg.github.io/netinfo/, we should make sure that the stats document references it. We have found `networkType` to be very helpful for diagnostics. (during a call and also afterwards). At least in the case for diagnostics, knowing if the user was on a WiFi helps a lot. Not having done any study, I cannot say if the additional information helps with fingerprinting. Because, in several enterprises/homes, the ethernet and wifi work in the same address range. There are also situations when the networkType is wrong, because someone is tethering (for example: LTE over WiFi). -- GitHub Notification of comment by vr000m Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-stats/issues/374#issuecomment-425707864 using your GitHub account
