Radicle contributor here.

When a repository is initialised as private [1], it's encoded in the repository identity document. The only way to change a repository to be public is to update the identity document; in the case of a repository with multiple delegates (repo maintainers in Radicle nomenclature), such a change requires a quorum to be met. So I'd say it's more than a fat-finger away from leaking.

> I was looking into how to get a radicle node running, but connected to only my own devices.

There's an open proposal [2] to introduce the concept of network configuration that would help with these kinds of use cases. Moreover, we're working on other ways to improve the collaboration experience for small teams, so stay tuned and thank you for this feedback!
