I'm almost definitely missing some background history here, but since when did they start doing these collaborations you're talking about? (and with whom?)
In addition to the link BHC has provided, this entire thread from the start of the second page is discussing that Wasabi is now anti-privacy and pro-censorship. Note that the account nopara73 belongs to Adam Ficsor, the CEO of Wasabi. His responses are quite telling, and reveal a lot about how Wasabi view their customers now. Other key statements:

We'll have to hire a bc anal company and filter out coinjoin input registrations with them

Max Hillebrand (CEO of zkSNACKs) said this in an interview.
if you, as a CoinJoin coordinator, if you want to work with institutional clients, hedge funds, insurance funds, Michael Saylor, and all these people, well, even if ZKSnacks were not to be regulated, those customers might very well be, maybe because they’re custodians of other people’s money or whatnot. And then these regulated entities can only become users of a coordinator—arguably, I’m not sure—if such a blacklisting is involved.

In short, Wasabi now cooperate with blockchain analysis to spy on and censor their users so they can cater to institutional clients so they can maximize their own profits.
