Running an EtreSoft diagnostic on a Macbook Pro (2019), I see this in the report: Firewall: Blocked apps: org.mozilla.updater com.apple.controlcenter com.vdigger.MacVideoDownloader com.apple.garageband10 com.GoPro.goproapp.GoProMsgBus com.soma-zone.BackupLoupe com.proxyman.NSProxy Stealth mode: Enabled Some of them I recognize, but some I don't.  I've never knowingly done anything to block any of them.  Are they blocked from receiving packets, sending packets, or both?  Is the block outside my local subnet, or does it include items within (printer, iPhones, iPads, router). macOS is 15.5 (24F74)
