In short, there’s a problem.

And, unlike the recent incident with the LastPass browser extension, this isn’t a case of the password manager’s developers accidentally deleting their plugin from the Chrome web store. According to a message posted by Dashlane’s senior engineering manager Thomas Guillory, it was Google which removed the extension citing a data privacy concern over permissions required by the password manager to do its job.

I recommend reading Andrey Meshkov's tweets regarding this issue with the Chrome WebStore

They must be doing something real bad because I can't find dashlane on firefox's extension store either

It’s very hard to tell. Dashlane is associated with a semi shady vpn, but the Chrome Web Store moderators seem to be giving devs a really hard time lately. I feel like these days there’s always more to these stories than what they seem.
