+ <p>While reading a
+<a href="https://sneak.berlin/20230115/macos-scans-your-local-files-now/">blog
+post claiming MacOS X recently started scanning local files and
+reporting information about them to Apple</a>, even on a machine where
+all such callback features had been disabled, I came across a
+description of the Little Snitch application for MacOS X. It seemed
+like a very nice tool to have in the tool box, and I decided to see if
+something similar was available for Linux.</p>
+
+<p>It did not took long to find
+<a href="https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch">the OpenSnitch
+package</a>, which has been in development since 2017, and now is in
+version 1.5.0. It has had a
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/909567">request for Debian
+packaging</a> since 2018, but no-one completed the job so far. Just
+for fun, I decided to see if I could help, and I was very happy to
+discover that
+<a href="https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch/issues/304">upstream
+want a Debian package too</a>.</p>
+
+<p>After struggling a bit with getting the program to run, figuring
+out building Go programs (and a little failed detour to look at eBPF
+builds too - help needed), I am very happy to report that I am
+sponsoring upstream to maintain the package in Debian, and it has
+since this morning been waiting in NEW for the ftpmasters to have a
+look. Perhaps it can get into the archive in time for the Bookworm
+release?</p>
