https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/metamask-by-kupinet/lpodkilpfnkllpeiebmmkalohjkdnghm

Don't download this as it is not the original metamask.

Shitstorm incoming for google.
They should be held accountable for people losing funds as a result of how poorly this situation (initiated by google) was managed.

I guess they have all the legal disclaimers needed to cover their asses when you download those extensions.

Unfortunately beside providing free services above average, they mainly care about making money out of you using them.

You are probably right, however if the right person got burnt by that we might see a class action.
Damn I hate google.
