Get public ip address in javascript

I'm looking for a simple function (as simple as it can be) for returning the public ip address. I came across this function:

const clientsIpAdress = (onNewIP) => {
  const MyPeerConnection =
    window.RTCPeerConnection ||
    window.mozRTCPeerConnection ||
    window.webkitRTCPeerConnection;
  const pc = new MyPeerConnection({
    iceServers: []
  });
  const noop = () => {};
  const localIPs = {};
  const ipRegex =
    /([0-9]{1,3}(\.[0-9]{1,3}){3}|[a-f0-9]{1,4}(:[a-f0-9]{1,4}){7})/g;

  const iterateIP = (ip) => {
    if (!localIPs[ip]) onNewIP(ip);
    localIPs[ip] = true;
  };
  pc.createDataChannel('');
  pc.createOffer().then((sdp) => {
    sdp.sdp.split('\n').forEach((line) => {
      if (line.indexOf('candidate') < 0) return;
      line.match(ipRegex).forEach(iterateIP);
    });

    pc.setLocalDescription(sdp, noop, noop);
  });
  pc.onicecandidate = (ice) => {
    if (!ice || !ice.candidate ||
      !ice.candidate.candidate ||
      !ice.candidate.candidate.match(ipRegex)) return;
    ice.candidate.candidate.match(ipRegex).forEach(iterateIP);
  };
};
export default clientsIpAddress;

but it is returning the local ipAddress. Any ideas?

$(document).ready(function () {
    $.getJSON("http://jsonip.com/?callback=?", function (data) {
        console.log(data);
        alert(data.ip);
    });
});
