Restricting table data access via REST web service using table settings is failing

I am accessing the ServceNow instance-1 incident table data using Basic Auth and ServiceNow Table REST API from ServiceNow instance-2 . It is working fine (One of the instance is PDI instance and other one is from a nowlearning course)

Now, I am testing to restrict the Instance-1 incident table data access using Web Service by setting  "Allow access to this table via web services" = False on Inicdent table

Still I am able to get the get the Instance-1 incident table data

 

Instance-1 = Provider

Instance-2 = Client

 

Any help would be appreciated

I have also noticed the same behavior when i tried to call the table api (which is restricted for webservice access) in my PDI. I have tried via postman through an profile with "incident manager" role. I was assuming no matter the "role" the account has, it should throw an error because of  "Allow access to this table via web services" = False selection
