Hey there folks,

I’m trying to figure out how to configure my UFW, and I’m just not sure where to start. What can I do to see the intetnet traffic from individual apps so I can know what I might want to block? This is just my personal computer and I’m a total newbie to configuring firewalls so I’m just not sure how to go about it. Most online guides seem to assume one already knows what they want to block but I don’t even know how/where to monitor local traffic to figure out what I can/should consider blocking.

    Yes, I am one of those people, literally all the time. This is the point of laptops.

    And I use default Ubuntu Desktop config, kept up to date of course.

    If that makes me and OP sitting targets, then maybe we should address this concern to the people who make distros rather than to a random anxious newbie.
