> now I use LittleSnitch on Mac (I just hope it's going to keep working on ARM macs) It should. Kexts are still allowed, for now. They're almost certainly only a couple of releases away from being deprecated though.

From the article this HN discussion [1] links to: "We expect the deprecation to become effective with the next major release of macOS. There’s no official release date from Apple, but based on the release schedule of recent years it will not be before this fall. Little Snitch 4 will then not be loaded by the operating system, but there will still be an option to allow the loading." Little Snitch 5 (with NKE) requires a new license.

  > Little Snitch 5 (with NKE) requires a new license. There is reasonable pricing for upgrades... LS4 bought within a certain time get a free upgrade, older licenses get a reduced price.

  A WWDC talk confirmed that notarized Kexts will still be allowed, but you'll have to enable that option via MacOS Recovery.

    As long as they’re using non-deprecated KPIs. Those that are require another trip to Recovery to disable SIP.
