Hello forum

just installed Little Snitch Firewall on macOS, but did not yet configure it…

- Why do “services” like backburnerManager and wiretap generate such huge traffic?
- where is data sent to ?

Thank you!

Thats a good question. Those are kinda mini server services, so, likely they are expecting other flames on the network to ya know…do stuff with. I think?
