- LoathsLights 6y agoI'm not sure how it is on Mac, but on Windows if you've ever used an app that can block network connections, and limit other applications. What is to stop any other app on your computer doing the exact same thing. As far as I've understood any app has access to any other app and the whole environment is just a warzone of apps where you have to trust every app completely to be okay with running it.
