Title:
device discoverable by default
Status in gnome-bluetooth package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When bluetooth is turned on ubuntu it is discoverable to all nearby devices.
It's strange that any "dumb" bluetooth device offers the option to be turned
on but not be discoverable, but gnome bluetooth manager doesn't offer such
option.
Any device can be paired with a device using the gnome desktop, as
long as the user gets the prompt to pair. After that, gnome desktop
can receive any file to the downloads folder.
There should be an option to make the gnome desktop device not show up
to other devices, and another one to restrict what files can be sent
via BT to the downloads folder
