Because it once again let's the USER control what his/her computer does not the software developer. I don't let my internet programs download stuff from sites like doubleclick.net etc. Also no one can initiate an SSH session without my approval, theres all kinds of great uses for this product.

who Objective Development is? While Little Snitch is watching everything else, who's watching Little Snitch? Am I paranoid, or warry of trusting unknown people?
