RiseupVPN
=========
RiseupVPN is a VPN app that is pre-configured for connecting to the anonymous
VPN service offered by Riseup.
Technically, RiseuVPN is a customised build of Bitmask, branded after one of
the major LEAP providers in the wild.
It ships only the set of vpn dependencies for the bitmask daemon, plus a
minimalistic systray written in golang https://0xacab.org/leap/bitmask-systray
that makes use of libappindicator for displaying notifications.
Currently, RiseupVPN is distributed as a snap package. It uses classic
confinement because it needs to install bitmask-root in the system, and a
polkit policy file so that bitmask-root and openvpn can be executed without
asking user for permission each time.
Usage
-----
Until the snap package gets approved in the snap store, you can use the snap as follows::
wget https://downloads.leap.se/RiseupVPN/linux/riseup-vpn_0.10.4_amd64.snap
sudo apt install snapd
sudo snap install riseup-vpn_0.10.4_amd64.snap --dangerous --classic
That should have made a new application called RiseupVPN in your launchers.
You can also launch it manually like this::
/snap/bin/riseup-vpn.launcher
