Lulu vs little snitch update#

E.g if my son was logged in, and then I switched to my user account, then switched back to his account, his account could not regain internet access without logging out entirely. My particular interest is our shared iMac (used by two sons and wife) where I'd had internet connectivity problems before when switching between user accounts. I have a few machines in my house so I'm putting it on others and seeing what happens. That review I'd seen but it really doesn't dive deep enough. Here is a review of 10 LittleSnitch alternatives.

Lulu vs little snitch update#

The Lulu Changelog and other update info is available at the Objective-See website. Choose from a curated collection of blocklists covering thousands of ad servers, tracking servers and much more. And if you don’t like what you see, you simply push the Stop-Button. Confirming it would require comparing the rule sets for each one. Objective Development: It shows you each and every Internet connection of all apps on your Mac. I suspect that the other utilities start with something closer to a blank slate rule-wise. I chalk it up in part to Lulu's stock rules and the option to automatically authorize already installed third-party apps. Lulu requires hardly any interaction initially. It almost felt like a full-time job getting LittleSnitch and HandsOff up and running. But if memory serves me (and things may have changed re how the other utilities are designed) I had to give the OK to many more processes than when using Lulu. Now it has been a while since I stopped using HandsOff and Little Snitch.
