solleech / droidwall Goto Github PK

This is an enhancement request.
I'd like to propose a new mode, that adds along with blacklist and
whitelist: Confirm.
When droidwall is in this mode, it asks the user (with a popup) to let the
app use internet (of cource once per app, as soon as the app is open, and
again if the app is closed and opened again).

Enhancement request for a menu option in droidwall to view which programs
have been blocked when whitelisting is used.

This would make it easy to determine which programs need to be whitelisted,
and is easier to implement than the previous "confirm mode" (real-time
blocking notification) enhancement request.

This page has some good suggestions for logging the uid of the blocked packets:

he-process-command-name-that-initiate

Logging all the time might take up too many resources, so it's probably
best to use the "limit" module to severely limit the amount of logging, or
allow toggling of the logging mode in droidwall (i.e. a "training mode"
that can be enabled during a day of regular app usage, and then disabled
afterwards).

Thanks, this program is extremely useful
