[QUOTE="CyberDevil, post: 945045, member: 91290"] If we talk about Windows, I would suggest you try the firewall from [B]Symantec Endpoint Protection[/B], it is very powerful and reliable, the firewall module can be installed separately without an antivirus, and the use it is free, although it is unofficial. The only problem for you is that like Comodo, Broadcom (owners of Symantec) is an USA company. You can also try [B]Simplewall [/B], which is a simple solution based on the Windows filtering platform that has telemetry blocking and supports the creation of various rules. The application code is open, and there are many good reviews about it. The [B]Portmaster[/B] mentioned above is also very good, although I have a few questions about its work, which I will write about in the corresponding topic later, but in general it is already possible to use it, they also have a version for Linux, but I can't say anything about working in Linux. Outpost was acquired by Yandex, a company specializing in advertising and marketing, so you can't expect any charity here. In addition, no one knows, perhaps the code has some patent violations. Unfortunately, this is the same story as with Opera Presto, its code was also asked to be made open, but this never happened, although it could have had a very good effect on the Internet as a whole.
