```bash
|
|
cd ~/github/privacy-toolkit
|
|
./install-apt-tools.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Or manual:**

## 🔄 Update Strategy
|
|
|
|
**For APT-managed tools:**
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Regular updates
|
|
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
|
|
|
|
# Check for security updates
|
|
sudo apt update && sudo apt list --upgradable
|

```bash
|
|
