Are username and password required? #36

Closed formicant closed 2 months ago

formicant commented 2 months ago

Unlike Hola-proxy or Opera-proxy, Windscribe-proxy shows an error when started:

CRITICAL Cold init failed: Please provide "-username" and "-password" command line arguments!

Is this the expected behavior, or something went wrong?

Full output:

$ ./windscribe-proxy

It is expected, registration is required.

Please add this to the ReadMe. And fix the usage examples.
