The command provided is used to enable the "Malware" feature in ProtonVPN's Command Line Interface (CLI) tool called "protonvpn-cli".
ProtonVPN is a virtual private network (VPN) service that provides online privacy and security by encrypting internet connections and routing them through their VPN servers. The netshield feature is a security measure that helps protect against various threats, and the "--malware" flag specifically enables the function that protects against malware.
By executing the command, the netshield feature with the malware protection option activated will run in the background, scanning and filtering data flows to identify and block known malware. This provides an additional layer of security for the user's internet browsing and helps prevent them from inadvertently downloading or accessing malicious content.
