Install Instructions: 1 Command
Our VPN Install is 1 Command.
Note: You Pay In the App Itself
Keep Existing VPN?
You can keep your existing systemwide VPN on if you like.
Step 1: Get It
This command fetches the newest version:
curl -O -J https://api.simplifiedprivacy.is/api/v1/platforms/linux-x86_64/appimage-versions/latest/Simplified_Privacy-x86_64.AppImage
AppImage
We made it an AppImage so it could run without sudo privileges and be directly distributed by us. However, it requires certain systemwide pre-requisites to function. We give you the 1 command to easily install these.
Verify
To verify it, run this command:
shasum -a 256 [filename]
Should spit out this for version: 1.2.0:
6eace7c910fdb2d1b6240fe483866de4b21b368bdabe6a07921e18bcd9c6e612
Sudo ?!
If you copy-paste a single command to your own terminal to install the pre-reqs, then this means you’re trusting your package manager, instead of trusting a new thing.
Browser-only Profiles:
No Sudo Required
System-wide VPN:
Requires Sudo to Connect, like any WireGuard VPN would. But no Sudo to Install/Setup
Pre-Reqs:
These pre-req packages (from your own package manager) are not going to screw up your system, and they won’t even be used if you stop using our VPN. Just because you install a low level prereq, doesn’t mean it ever activates. They take up barely any space, and have no real downside. If you decide to stop using our service, you can purge the pre-reqs using your package manager later.

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/ratpoison.git
cd ratpoison
