Ubuntu - Install Mullvad VPN
Use the following command chain to download the mullvad public in order to trust it, before then adding the repository to install and keep mullvad up-to-date.
sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/mullvad-keyring.asc https://repository.mullvad.net/deb/mullvad-keyring.asc \
&& echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/mullvad-keyring.asc arch=$( dpkg --print-architecture )] https://repository.mullvad.net/deb/stable $(lsb_release -cs) main" \
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mullvad.list \
&& sudo apt update \
&& sudo apt install mullvad-vpn
Old Method
This is an old method that I'm keeping hold of just in case:
The script below will use axel and gdebi-core to download Mullvad as fast as possible before then installing it.
sudo apt update && sudo apt install axel gdebi-core -y \
&& axel -n 4 --output=mullvad.deb https://mullvad.net/download/app/deb/latest \
&& sudo gdebi --non-interactive mullvad.deb \
&& sudo rm mullvad.deb
