Windows version of Psiphon on wine does not work. Instead of using wine, use native psiphon script for linux.

This linux version by Psiphon Inc. is much better and multifunctional than the windows one.

Here is the simplified,re-shared, modified version of psiphon. Readme contains a simple step by step guide for running psiphon through terminal.
