I sure don't. Whenever that dialog pops up on Windows, I have no clue
what to expect as a consequence of several of the choices. As Lars
says, what's the difference between "trusted home" and "trusted
work"?
Especially given that I work from home? :)
On the other hand, it should not be difficult at all to ask whether
unlimited data transfer is acceptable for this connection in a way that
shouldn't confuse anyone.
Haha. Yeah there is a distinct irony here: Firewall Zones in the
Network panel is a lot of unneeded and meaningless granularity,
meanwhile there's no UI to have the pipe closed to silent and massive
background downloads.
