the network inspector is promising, but manually clicking on each country to exclude it is less than ideal. And I see no way to see what has been blocked, urgo I cannot deal with it. Otherwise very impressed.

Constantly pops up this error message: You can’t open the application “Moonlock.app” because it is not responding.

I didn’t see the need for it, really, but I saw it was from MacPaw (the SetApp folks themselves) and figured I’d give it a go. Things were pretty quiet for the first few weeks, but recently App Tamer’s been alerting me that Moonlock’s been pegging my CPU at 95%, which isn’t great. But what I found worse than that is that there’s NO way to disable the thing — certainly not through the GUI. I would have been happy with something in preferences to dial it down a bit, or something. So then I tried to foce-quit everything Moonlock-related via Activity Monitor, but that had no effect. The ONLY thing that let me get rid of that annoying alert was uninstalling the app altogether. TO BE CLEAR: given the nature of the software itself, I can fully appreciate that it’s not “quittable”, as well as the fact that it’s gotta be very challenging to implement such complex software. That said, I could live with all the alerts, so it’s gotta go. I may check back in in 2027… if I remember ;)

Uses high CPU and made Mac run hot. Cooled down after I quit and uninstalled.

Awful, it took from me a whole day to uninstall. Why would I want an app that "inspects" for malware but can not be uninstalled by itself??? Terrible, DON'T INSTALL IT. WILL MAKE YOUR LAPTOP TERRIBLY SLOW AND WHEN YOU WANT TO REMOVE YOU WILL WANT TO TEAR YOURSELF

Causes too many problems on my computer to be worth it. When it asks for permissions in system preferences, it causes system preferences to freeze. Uninstalled.

For anitivirus, malware, is lightweight, has a good interface, and hits the mark. The network blocker is crazy - nobody wants to select 180 countries to block. Give me a recommendation list, or give me monitoring to inform choices, or give me a select all that I can block all with and then select permitted countries. This was obvious a quick attempt to offer a feature.
