Exactly. Almost everyone is behind a router so there is no way this is going to be as useful as stated in the article.

P2P firewall traversal is pretty common these days. Checkout STUN/ICE/TURN.
I stand corrected :). I was just reading up on STUN, it is a very interesting solution.
Every example I'm aware of for WebRTC right now uses STUN. It's part of ROAP and it's possible in JSEP (and easier, with ROAP-via-JSEP library).

Nah, everyone is just claiming this to be awesome and just happened to forget about NAT routers....
