Peer-to-peer (P2P) option in Direct Calls (maybe Group Calls)

It could be useful (for example, when the servers are at 60% packet loss rate for no reason) to allow one of the users in a call to enable P2P in this call.

It would ask to every other user in the call if they agree with that, and if everyone does, it would toggle into this mode.

It would reveal public IPs of the users in the call, but the confirmation window would warn them about that.

  Hey!

  This in itself is pretty good, the only problem is that it reveals the IP of other users, which is against the Privacy and contains a risk of hacking, ddos ​​...

  Of course, that's why I advised to show a warning and to wait for everyone to accept the P2P call mode.

  About "Privacy", I assume you are talking about Legal Terms and things like that. If it's the case, I admit I don't know if it is compatible with them..
