I thought this was known for a while?

But speaking of, does the website know if you do have MetaMask installed right away (without prompting you for anything)? Because that would be a real concern if it did.



Yeah it does. Browsing the Web with MetaMask is like walking around with a bag of $10,000 cash openly exposed in a crowded public street of a society with no police officers or law enforcement.

And with a blindfold on your eyes.


I think metamask injects web3 into every context on the page so it's pretty easy to check for that.
