Heard process and AdvancedBlocking process on Venturayesterday I was looking at my console when I noticed the process called Heard, went to discussions.apple.com to formulate a question about it and try to learn but no one could told me about those AirPods connected on my computer when I never did have or own any of those... I keep bluetooth off and sometimes it is on without any authorization from my side, trying to look information about the process on the search engine another process called AdvancedBlocking popped up and honestly seems pretty shady cause in the apple site after I open another thread regarding this last process got my access denied to the thread... any ideas or help would be much appreciates... am I being listened? spied? what is all this? enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here

No, this is not an indication of you being listened on, spied on, hacked or anything like that.

heard (which is to be read as hear-d for hear-daemon) is a part of the HearingCore framework, which is part of the standard installation of macOS.

The log texts you have included does not in any way indicate that AirPods have been connected to your computer. That is a misunderstanding on your part.

  • Regarding why the AirPods message did not show up today: Because you did not have a similar route change today.

  • In general, one should not rely on their own interpretation of log messages found in Console unless they happen to be either a software developer, professional software tester, system administrator or professional IT-supporter.
