EOS Token Distribution is not available for U.S. WHAT?

I hear about a great deal coming up! For those who missed the opportunity to purchase a cryptocurrency when its value was under a $1 USD and still having some regrets, (specially when we talk about; Bitcoin, Ethereum and Steemit) I am sure that you want to know about these great news! As I write this post, I am a little over 7hrs away to start the distribution of a new token called EOS.
This quite giant that is about to wake up and is going to change the entire landscape of blockchain technology. You can find the website here : https://www.eos.io
Unfortunately this opportunity is not for everybody! It turns out that the EOS token purchase agreement put the U.S. citizens out of considerations. I don't know exactly why but I was a little surprised when I was reading the purchase agreement and saw this:

" Check here to confirm that you are not a U.S. citizen, resident or entity (a “U.S. Person”) nor are you purchasing EOS Tokens or signing on behalf of a U.S. Person."

I really hope that this is something temporary because I am sure that are many individuals in the U.S (like me) who are interested.

BTW: Despite the fact that the purchase agreement said U.S citizens cannot purchase the token, it look like you can still do it with MetaMask. If you are interested how I did it please let me know in your comments! I can share with you the process.
