I experienced this earlier today. I ended up creating a reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/macbook/comments/jt3pqx/third_party...)

I also noticed that the symptoms go way if you manually disable WIFI.

Who architected this solution? Imagine an OS that needs to ping a server every time you launch an application and if the server down it renders your system useless.

The dev-community needs to push back on this issue and perhaps apple will re-think this solution
