Little Snitch 7 is coming soon! Want to take a first look? A beta is already available at obdev.at/products/littlesnit…
Due to a bug in Little Snitch 6.2.1, automatic software update checks may not work for some users, so they aren’t notified about future fixes and updates anymore.
Please perform a manual check to get 6.2.2 which fixes this issue.
Please re-post to notify others who might also be affected by this bug. Thanks a lot! 💐

We’ve published a Manifesto to make this very clear — we do not spy on our users.
(we actually assumed this was self-evident and didn’t require explicit mention. But, apparently, it does)

We’ve been surprised to learn that legitimate security software exists that installs a rootkit to spy on their users.

Not sure if it’s a good idea to share personal medical data with Twitter/X to train their AI. Well, actually, we are pretty sure it isn’t.

Here’s some additional in-depth information from @[email protected] about the Locate X location-tracking issue.

If a mobile device is capable of tracking your location to create a movement profile, it is quite possible that one day it does…
So be sure to grant access to your phone’s location services only with the utmost care.

If your robot vacuum is equipped with a camera, it may very well see more than just the dust on your floor.

Privacy and Anonymity: two pairs of similar looking shoes. “Privacy is about having control over your personal information—choosing what you share and with whom […] having the right to decide who has access to your data and how much you want to protect.”

Why is @firefox spontaneously connecting to some telemetry server at mozilla.com? 🤔
It turned out that these “Privacy & Security” settings of Firefox are turned on by default:
* Allow Firefox to send technical and interaction data to Mozilla
* Allow Firefox to make personalized extension recommendations
* Allow Firefox to install and run studies
Might be a good idea to turn them off…
