Hello, I do not see the steps to uninstall the package in the documentation. Can the author provide the steps to remove it completely?

This worked for me (I'm using Ubuntu):

  1. Reverse sysctl settings set during chomper installation:
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=0
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=0
sudo sysctl -p
  1. Remove this line from ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile
export PATH=$PATH:/home/$USER/chomper/bin
  1. Stop the proxy 
sudo pkill -f mitmdump
  1. Remove chomper directory
rm -rf ~/chomper
  1. At this point your internet won't function, but if you now reboot your machine it will work again.

Done.
