Solution

  • on IPFS an file is not private all node has access all. if we want use IPFS to share a private content you need install IPFS. after that you need disconnect public cluster : https://ipfs.io/docs/commands/#ipfs-swarm-disconnect

    however for the moment (current version ipfs) your node continue share own DHT table with ipfs.io but your ressource is only enable your node.
