Our computers constantly talk to servers across the internet without us realizing, sharing information about our activities. Most of us don't even realize how many programs are silently connecting to the internet and sharing data. It usually happens without our explicit consent.
But we can block these connections. On Mac, you can use a program called Little Snitch.
In this video we look at the data is silently transmitted from our computer through things like telemetry, and show you how to use Little Snitch to regain control over the data leaving your computer.

Using a reverse firewall like Little Snitch can be very revealing about how much data is silently being transmitted from our computer. Simply becoming aware of this can help us make better decisions with the tech we use.
Our suggestions come from privacy expert Michael Bazzell, and we highly recommend you check out his site: https://inteltechniques.com/blog/2021/08/18/macos-telemetry-update

There is a similar product that apparently doesn't have the same granular functionality but is free called Lulu. I haven't tested it though, so you're on your own there!
