[Bug 1422700] Re: 'Dash search' option makes no sense, and may be obsolete

 

I guess the model for scope should be similar than the ones for apps:
when installed, if the scope tries to reach the network for the first
time, then we get the "allow <scope_name> to acess the network. You set
it to yes and no. Similar behavior if the scope wants to access the GPS
position and so on. Departments as well (and so new updates adding new
sources) should follow the same realm.

Basically scopes would behave likes applications in that regard for the
security policy.

Bug description:
  ubuntu-touch/stable/bq-aquaris #17

  In system settings | Security & Privacy, there is a setting 'Dash
  Search', with the options 'phone only' and 'phone and internet'.

  This used to releate to whether remote searches were included by the
  managed dash when it searched the whole phone. It no longer does this,
  so this setting may be obsolete.

  Flipping it to phone only did not prevent scopes from searching the
  internet.

  Should this setting still exist?
