The platform has implemented restrictions that block US-based users, including those utilizing Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), from accessing its services.The decision to block VPN users is believed to be part of MakerDAO&#39;s broader strategy to prevent US users from accessing its crypto lending platform. This was outlined in a <a href="https://www.sparkprotocol.io/terms-of-use.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">May 9 update</a> to Spark Protocol&#39;s terms of service.Blec contended on Twitter that the decision was equivalent to a &#34;war on privacy,&#34; which goes against the spirit of decentralization:<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/srd-optimized-uploads/bdc84222bbd449c68eecba5d747bf810.png" />Spark Protocol, introduced in May by Phoenix Labs, a blockchain research and development company founded by the Maker Foundation, offers users annual returns on DAI lending.
