NetScope is a powerful network and process monitoring tool inspired by top and netstat. It allows you to view established connections, listening connections, running processes, and interact with the processes, such as killing them.

This is a useful shape for a tool. The hard part is usually making the live view readable when the machine is noisy: grouping connections by process, making listen vs established impossible to confuse, and not turning DNS lookups into a little self-inflicted denial of service.

The process-kill feature is handy, but I would probably want it to be deliberately annoying to trigger. Monitoring tools become much more exciting once they can shoot the patient.

There is a Confirmation feature. If you fucked that up, it is on you.
