I'm a software developer and as such I build and run programs hundreds of times per day. I've noticed that since I started using Catalina, after compiling and linking there is a delay (which can be seconds) when the internet is slow or having problems (I have bad internet often). If I disable wifi and rebuild, the delay goes away.

Is Apple seriously sending information on the binary to their servers for inspection as a security feature? I know Catalina introduced notarization and other security features but this crosses a line for me and I want to opt out.

If anyone has any information it would be appreciated.
