Description

Little Snitch seems to interfere with BlockBlock. With Little Snitch installed, BlockBlock fails to load on reboot even though Full Disk Access is granted. A manual reboot does not fix the issue. When removing Little Snitch from the system, BlockBlock functions normally again. I submitted this to Little Snitch support, but thought I would submit here as well.
