Three items to take into account:

 * Your machine will (AFAIK) only publish services you explicitly
   allow. For example, pulseaudio requires the installation of a
   specific module and cupsd rquires printer sharing to be explicitly
   enabled.

 * The services offered by other machines on the network need not be
   accessed.

 * It is assumed your machine is on a network that is regarded as
   trusted. Otherwise, why are you there?
