ReadyCLOUD discover reveals more than I bargained for
I visited ReadyCLOUD, selected 'Set up a new ReadyNAS', and was a bit surpeised to see so many devices - none of which are mine. Are these real devices of other users?
This is intriguing. So, I just visited https://readycloud.netgear.com, selected add new device, NAS, and low and behold, no devices are displayed at all now. I used search, and it did show my local NAS, but surely this is now functioning entirely as we'd expect?
Anyone from Netgear here to confirm the behaviour has been changed?
I got curious about this and looked up what actually gets called when you 'search'... If you manually go to the API address and change the callback ID you'll see other devices than your own so yeah........
Not that it really matter much, it doesn't provide you access - at most you'll see the hostname + internal IP which obviously won't be reachable anyways.
