Hi Josh - on the same theme, would it be possible to create an app (in MacRuby) where I could intercept web connections (/urls) and block if need be?
I'm thinking about creating a website limiter - where you can set time limits or time-frames for certain websites. I'm guessing something like it might be possible as Little Snitch intercepts network connections :/ Thanks in advance.
