The "protonvpn-cli connect" command is used to connect to a VPN (Virtual Private Network) server using the ProtonVPN command-line interface (CLI).
ProtonVPN is a VPN service that provides privacy, anonymity, and security by encrypting your internet connection and routing it through a secure server. The CLI allows you to manage your VPN connections and settings directly from the command line.
The "connect" flag is used with the "protonvpn-cli" command to initiate a connection to a ProtonVPN server. When you run the "protonvpn-cli connect" command, it will establish a secure connection between your device and the VPN server, encrypting all your internet traffic.
This command is typically used when you want to connect to a ProtonVPN server quickly without using a graphical user interface. It can be useful in scripting, automation, or situations where a GUI-based VPN client is not available or desired.
