Description
Not everyone will want to use Google's STUN server as a default in case they do not deploy a TURN server. This kind of default is perhaps desirable from a functionality perspective, but is undesirable from a privacy perspective.

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the SDK's fallback STUN/TURN server configuration and the related documentation, then determine how users can configure it and what privacy-preserving default behavior should be documented. Done means the fallback behavior is configurable and clearly documented.
