Add two settings called something along the lines of Allow WiFis by default and Show notification when WiFi is disallowed.

Discussed in #1654

Originally posted by bcelary March 16, 2023
My Vorta runs daily backups when I am at home to my local NAS server. But I often move around and any other WiFi should not be used to even attempt a backup.

Would you consider adding an option that would require user to explicitly add a WiFi to allowed networks? Especially when using local address (like 192.168... or host.local name)? Also the message that WiFi is not allowed might become a non-error message, as Vorta keeps nagging me all the time when I am away from home.

These options could be added in the Networks panel, here:

E.g. x Don't allow new WiFi connections and x silence "cuurent WiFi is not allowed" messages.

Asking if such idea makes sense as this seems like something easy to add and I might as well create a PR for this.

Ah, I didn't know vorta allowed every network you connected to by default. @bcleary I'd be happy to work on this for/with you, I'm trying to learn more about the project. Thanks!
