Comment (by facelikeapig):
I see your point, and I partially agree, however, if I were to allow the
tool (freshclam) to freely connect to the network, it sort of defeats the
purpose of little snitch, as it could no longer recognise a binary had
been maliciously altered. That is the purpose of code signing. Note, I do
not have issues with other binaries installed by macports that also
connect to the internet.
