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.

    Your phone tether will NAT you and not route any incoming packets that aren’t part of a connection initiated by your host. Firewwll does nothing and anyway you wouldn’t even have any open port inside the LAN unless you run services that open ports.
