Bug Description
ubuntu-
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?

"Under privacy in system settings, we have an option called Dash search, that gives you the choices of phone or internet and phone. This I think was when the old manage dash allowed you to search anything. However , we dont have this feature anymore.. I think it should be remove from settings. Worth checking with mpt"
