With more advanced firewall’ you can even make sure only certain app’s have access to the internet to make sure only what you absolutely need toconnect to the internet does.
This sounds very interesting. This would have to be some forme of additional layer 7 firewall, right (As in it would have to interract with system processes, rather than filtering by network packet at layers 3, and 4)? Does this type of firewall have a specific name, or do you perhaps have some examples? I don't think it would be possible with something like nftables, but I could certainly be wrong.
