I think you would be better off asking Mozilla how to install software
they make, as this is not packaged by or provided by Debian.
According to:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-install-mozilla-vpn-linux-computer
they only support Ubuntu.
Thanks,
Andy

What I see at that page is that there are *unofficial* builds of mozillavpn, but only on riscv64 and ia64. What architecture are you on?

I also see a link to <https://vpn.mozilla.org/>.
If I click that, I am taken to a page that says, among other things,
Save 50% on Mozilla VPN*
*with an annual subscription
It looks like this is a non-free, commercial product, requiring a
recurring monetary payment. Perhaps those ancient ia64 and risc ports
came from a time when it was being offered as open source...?
