The Shire was unprotected. Sauron is not going to waltz up to one of the last Elven strongholds because someone speaks Mordor. But he might send a bunch of orcs when someone uses it in the middle of nowhere all of a sudden.
In the books I think the shire does end up getting attacked after Sauron is defeated in the post war Battle of Bywater.
Yes, by Saruman who tried to create a new Mordor.
I get why it’s not in the movies, but all the hobbits turning into absolute badasses after their homes are threatened was amazing to read.
