Little Snitch for Linux — eBPF Network Monitor

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection.

Little Snitch for Linux is an open-source eBPF-based network monitoring and blocking toolkit written in Rust. It attaches eBPF programs to the Linux kernel to intercept network connections, then shares data between kernel and user space via eBPF maps. The open-source portion includes eBPF programs, shared types, and a demo runner; the full product from Objective Development includes additional proprietary UI and rule-engine components.
