picosnitch helps protect your security and privacy by "snitching" on anything that connects to the internet, letting you know when, how much data was transferred, and to where. It uses BPF to monitor network traffic per application, and per parent to cover those that just call others. It also hashes every executable, and will complain if some mischievous program is giving it trouble.

    version 0.14.1

  • eric (18 Aug 23)

    go back to using classic confinement for snap Required plugs for this to work do not currently exist in snapd. I'll leave this here for now in case they are added in the future or if anyone wants to build their own snap with classic confinement. Only a few of the plugs this commit removes were actually required. I don't think there are any other currently existing plugs that are required for this to work.
