Following your instructions exactly, I get error:
launchctl: propertyList is NULL
launchctl: no plist was returned for:
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
launchctl: no plist was returned for:
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
nothing found to load
However, changing the line to:
<key>Disabled</key>
DOES work, so I'll assume the closing slash was misplaced.
It does turn off Bonjour, but also AFP, system.log says:
Jun 8 10:52:06 Gnarlodious-PowerBook DirectoryService[43]: DS (Bonjour)
couldn't register [NSLUseMachineNameForRegistration] (afpovertcp) due to an
error: -65537!
Also, eppc and a few other network protocols are also disabled. Is this
supposed to happen? Startup is also delayed at least a minute as it waits
for disabled network to appear.
This doesn't seem right. Any more advice? I only want disable broadcasting.

Entity Mike Doris uttered this profundity:
