the wrong check-box 3 years ago, having the whole archive show up on
the internet 5 hours after his arrival.

This issue is totally orthogonal to the question of dynamic discovery: if someone runs an FTP server/Web Server/Shared mount point on their laptop and shows up in a WiFi environment, they have the same problem, with the same solution: implement access controls the way you always do with those services, and/or don't put your Super Sekret source in your FTP/Web/Share tree.
