        **I don’t plan to actively maintain this repository any further. I
        haven’t used NordVPN’s services in quite some time and lacking an
        account also makes testing it more difficult. If you are interested in
        becoming a maintainer, please contact me at ``nordnm@ross.ch`` and I can
        provide direct access to the repository.**
        
        This tool **automates** the importing and **secures** the usage of
        NordVPN (and eventually any) OpenVPN configurations through Network
        Manager.
        
        **Disclaimer:** I am not associated with
        `Tesonet <https://tesonet.com>`__/`NordVPN <https://nordvpn.com>`__ in
        any shape or form, nor do I recommend their services for sensitive
        traffic (or any other private VPN provider for that matter). If you plan
        on using this tool for anonymity much beyond circumventing geo-blocking,
        I would recommend a different approach.
        
        Using a self-hosted VPN solution (such as
        `Algo <https://github.com/trailofbits/algo>`__) provides higher
        assurance that your traffic isn’t being monitored by a bad actor. Better
        yet, use TOR or another `mix
        network <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mix_network>`__.
        
        **WebRTC Privacy Warning:** This tool can’t protect against IP leaks
        through WebRTC in browsers. For more information: `The WebRTC
        “bug” <https://www.bestvpn.com/a-complete-guide-to-ip-leaks/#webrtc>`__
        
        Features:
        ---------
        
        If you encounter a **problem** or have a **feature request**, please
        make an issue report and it will be looked into ASAP.
        
        -  **Small Footprint:** Nordnm does not use any background processes.
           Once a synchronise has finished, it’s all handled by Network Manager.
        -  **Improved readability:** Humanly readable connection names, so you
           can easily tell what each connection offers.
        -  **Only import what you need:** Your preference of countries, VPN
           categories and protocols can be saved, to synchronise only the
           options you need.
        -  **Always up-to-date:** The tool can be configured to always check if
           it is using the latest NordVPN OpenVPN configuration files.
        -  **Server Benchmarking:** Servers are benchmarked according to their
           latency and server load, to determine the optimal options available.
        -  **Auto-Connect:** A server of your choice can be set to automatically
           activate whenever you connect to the Internet.
        -  **DNS Tunnelling:** DNS requests are forced to go through the VPN
           tunnel, to prevent privacy ruining `DNS
           leaks <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_leak>`__.
        -  **IPv6 Disabled:** IPv6 is disabled by default, to avoid IPv6 leaks.
        -  **Kill-Switch:** Set a network kill-switch, to disable the network
           interface being used if the active VPN disconnects.
        -  **MAC Address Manipulation:** Change the MAC address used by Network
           Manager in a variety of ways (randomization, spoofing, etc), to avoid
           tracking across networks.
        
        1. Installation
        ---------------
        
        1.1 Arch (AUR)
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        Use your preferred method of installing packages via AUR. An easy option
        is to use `yay <https://github.com/Jguer/yay>`__:
        
        ::
        
           yay -S nordnm
        
        1.2 Debian/Ubuntu
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        ::
        
           wget -qO - https://bintray.com/user/downloadSubjectPublicKey?username=bintray | sudo apt-key add -
           sudo apt-add-repository "https://dl.bintray.com/chadsr/nordnm-deb main"
           sudo apt update && sudo apt install nordnm
        
        1.3 RPM Based Distributions (Fedora, CentOS, etc)
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        ::
        
           wget https://bintray.com/chadsr/nordnm-rpm/rpm -O bintray-chadsr-nordnm-rpm.repo
           sudo mv bintray-chadsr-nordnm-rpm.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/
           sudo yum install nordnm
        
        1.4 Python PIP
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        
        **Note:** If you install via PIP, system dependencies will need to be
        installed manually. It is therefore recommended to install via your
        system package manager. If your system is not yet listed above, leave an
        issue and it can be added ASAP.
        
        *If your default Python version is 2.x (check using ``python -V``), you
        will need to use pip3 below*
        
        System Install
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        ::
        
           sudo -H pip install nordnm
        
        User Install
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        ::
        
           pip install --user nordnm
        
        2. Usage
        --------
        
        ::
        
           usage: nordnm [-h] [-v] [-k] [-i] [-a [COUNTRY_CODE] [VPN_CATEGORY] [PROTOCOL]]  ...
        
           optional arguments:
             -h, --help            show this help message and exit
             -v, --version         Display the package version.
             -k, --kill-switch     Sets a network kill-switch, to disable the active network interface when an active VPN connection disconnects.
             -i, --disable-ipv6    Disable IPv6 when enabling a VPN connection
             -a [COUNTRY_CODE] [VPN_CATEGORY] [PROTOCOL], --auto-connect [COUNTRY_CODE] [VPN_CATEGORY] [PROTOCOL]
                                   Configure NetworkManager to auto-connect to the chosen server type. Takes country code, category and protocol.
        
           commands:
                                   Each command has its own help page, which can be accessed via nordnm <COMMAND> --help
               remove (r)          Remove active connections, auto-connect, kill-switch, disabling ipv6, data, mac settings or all.
               update (u)          Update a specified setting.
               list (l)            List the specified information.
               sync (s)            Synchronise the optimal servers (based on load and latency) to NetworkManager.
               import (i)          Import an OpenVPN config file to NetworkManager.
               mac (m)             Global NetworkManager MAC address preferences. This command will affect ALL NetworkManager connections permanently.
        
        **Note:** Each command has its own help section, which can be acccessed
        via ``nordnm <COMMAND> --help``.
