I have grown weary of little snitch annoying me all the time but it was insightful about how much stuff Apple has me pinging by default: like yahoo.com for weather on boot just to name one.
This kind of angered me, I don’t want yahoo getting my ip anywhere I am in the world any time I turn on my computer. I think I found like 4-5 things that are baked into a clean Mac install these days that I took exception to and forbade.
Then Microsoft office and adobe are evil and constantly evading it and getting smacked down too.
