Renderer <-> Network pipe

[Dustin Mitchell]

Hi, I have what is hopefully a simple question, but haven't been able to find a definitive answer.

I need to determine whether an ExecutionContext is IP-Protected (in the renderer), and the network service is the process with the answer. Is it permissible to set up a direct pipe between renderer and network service for this (with the setup mediated by the browser)? Or must the renderer call the browser which in turn calls the network service?

Thanks!
