Trying to install VPN and these are the instructions Mullvad is giving me. This is ridiculous. There must be a more simple way. I know how to follow the instructions but I have no idea what I’m doing here. Can’t I just download a file and install it? I’m on Ubuntu.

    Yes, this could’ve been a script (I hate when install instructions use curl+sh) that does who knows what and maybe 5% of users would bother to crack it open. Adding the repo and key means a hacker would have to replace at least two things in order to slip in malware.
