Ask HN: How to Block Apple's Spyware on BigSur?

With BigSur, Apple is getting a hash of every executable you run, and it's changing the way kernel extensions work and VPNs work to prevent blocks from happening.

Immediately, I think the quick answer is to block outgoing requests to apple's server using an external firewall, but how does one identify which requests are carrying the spyware?

On the Mac system, how can we remove the spyware functionality?
