This is really bad for the future of cryptocurrencies because Metamask is one of the most trusted Dapp which is now changing for some reason, don't know the actual reason but it could be due to the government regulations, what if every wallets goes into the control of government someday?

until now this news is still gray because most of the news is still within the scope of twitter and some media which incidentally are still local in scope and this should matemask provide feedback that can answer the users or maybe they still don't know about this or are still studying and doing research with what really happened. and I myself never heard as a metemask user until now about a problematic matemask

True I've came across this news online as well, it's spreading faster on twitter too as many people are retweeting this, a friend stopped using metamask already because of this and the funny part is metamask team aren't saying anything about this yet.

Well, it seems that it's on the news since last week that they've been blocking some areas of concern. I still don't know how they've become like that.
I'm looking for some threads and articles that will explain how and why metamask has become like this. There were only a few articles about it and I've got to do some digging as to why they've acted like being centralized such as what OP has brought into attention.

Weird news. MetaMask is one of the successful projects in the crypto field. Personally i don't remember hearing any compliance against it.

The news isn't widely spread till now and can't find info about it.
Never heard of it. But will look into this, Ive been a metamask user and so far I dont have much complain when using it except sometime when RPC isnt working. But the problem on stuck or block transaction if its real then its a serious problem. Everyone has been using this wallet for altcoin and for me its the most convenient one but if its compromise metamask should give feedback or response on this kind of issue.

It's horrible to read such a complaints from affected users in addition to all those users affected from fake copies of Metamask addon or asked to connect their metamask account to such a phishy website.
In fact, this is Weird news. MetaMask is one of the successful projects in the crypto field. Personally i don't remember hearing any compliance against it.

The news isn't widely spread till now and can't find info about it.

I am trying to figure out the background of Aaron Davis (founder of Metamask), but I couldn't find any information about him online. I learned he used to work for Apple[1], so I guess maybe he is from the US, otherwise, it doesn't make sense for a decentralized extension to be a resistance to people.
Other alternatives for communicating with Ethereum DApps are available, your recovery phrase will get you all of your private keys on Metamask, kindly export them into another one.

Unfortunately metamask wallet is no more decentralized, I will now call this a practice of a closed source wallet, users from Iran and Venezuela are reporting problems with accessing their digital wallets with hundreds of users saying none of their transactions sent through MetaMask was successful, unfortunately metamask is now a closed source wallet fully centralised..
