The `mozillavpn` command provides a command-line interface for interacting with the Mozilla VPN service on Linux. It allows users to connect to VPN servers, disconnect, check connection status, manage account settings, and perform other VPN-related operations. This tool is useful for scripting VPN connections or using the VPN service in environments without a graphical user interface. It leverages the same underlying technology as the graphical Mozilla VPN application, ensuring consistency in features and security.

The command focuses on providing essential VPN functionality through easily accessible commands, promoting user privacy and security. Regular updates maintain compatibility with the Mozilla VPN service and incorporate security improvements.

The `mozillavpn` command requires the Mozilla VPN application to be installed and configured correctly. Ensure that the VPN service is running and that you are logged in before using the command.

Some features available in the graphical application may not be accessible through the command-line interface.

To use `mozillavpn`, ensure you have a valid Mozilla VPN subscription. The application usually handles authentication. However, ensure you are logged in via the GUI or relevant CLI commands to ensure the command tool works as intended.

The `mozillavpn` command was developed alongside the Mozilla VPN application to provide a command-line interface for Linux users. It was created to offer more flexibility and control over VPN connections, particularly in server or automated environments. It's evolved to provide a more comprehensive feature set to mirror graphical functionalities.
