What

Internet sharing allows sharing connection with other computers on your local network. For example, if your Mac is connected to the internet using Ethernet, you can share that connection to other computers over Wi-Fi.

Why you should turn off Internet Sharing

Unless required for short periods, it should be disabled as it reduces the remote attack surface of the system.

How to disable Internet Sharing

Open System Preferences, go to General, then click Sharing.
In the list, uncheck Internet Sharing.
