I'm trying to mount 1Tb USB drive on BigSur. Always get the same error.

sudo ntfs-3g /dev/disk3s1 /VOLUMES/NTFS -volname="test" -o local  -o negative_vncache  -o auto_xattr -o auto_cache  -o noatime  -o windows_names -o user_xattr  -o inherit  -o uid=501 -o gid=20  -o allow_other

My bad, should've read installation logs. Run sudo ln -fsn /opt/local/Library/Filesystems/macfuse.fs /Library/Filesystems/macfuse.fs before first use of fuse/ntfs-3g. Then OS asks to add security exception, reboots and then ntfs-3g works OK. PS all name options seem to be ignored as mounted device in Finder is named "macfuse..."
