curl -O https://github.com/rollsicecream/privacy-dns-chooser/privacy_dns_chooser.sh
chmod +x privacy_dns_chooser.sh
sudo ./privacy_dns_chooser.shIt should be a bug. Report an issue first via GitHub Issues. To restore Internet access to your machine, launch these commands in the terminal :
curl -O https://github.com/rollsicecream/privacy-dns-chooser/rescue.sh
chmod +x rescue.sh
sudo ./rescue.sh
This script will revert /etc/systemd/resolved.conf to his default state.
During DNS setup, the user, if they choose NextDNS as their choice, should enter their configuration number (e.g. a12345). This configuration number will not and will never be sent to any server. This number will stay safe.
