      @leocg I stepped through the site with the developer tools and found that this warning pops up right before I'm redirected to the Personal News page.

          @leocg I had a few enabled (F1000 Annotator, Augmented Steam, Opera Ad Blocker, and a Google Translate sidebar extension) but I disabled all of them, restarted the browser, and still have the same issue.

            I have the same issue; this is quite annoying and just started happening in the last day or two.

              Should have mentioned that I am using latest Opera Version:67.0.3575.137

              Glad (sic) that you have seen the same issue. Thanks for the tip about http://editions.cnn.com. Seems to work fine.

                  @leocg I just cleared all my cookies and it seems to have solved the issue. Hopefully it works for the others. Thanks!

                    @jhoman81 I have this same problem. I get redirected to personal news after CNN loads. I've deleted all cookies, blocked cookies from CNN and done everything to disable personal news but can't disable it. This just started yesterday April 8. My Google searches also get redirected to a "Thank you" search. This manipulation is driving me nuts.

                      Exactly how did you "clear all cookies" ? In Opera only, or in general? Notice any (negative) consequences of this?

                        @gp123 I just cleared all browsing data (ctrl+shift+del) in Opera then restarted the browser. I was then able to open http://us.cnn.com without it going to the Personal News page. The only negative consequence was having to login to sites again but other than that it was fine.

                          @timasino I cleared all browsing data and that solved the problem.

                            Just took a look this morning and the problem seems to have corrected itself !!!

                            All back to normal with CNN.com on Opera, without any action on my part.

                            Yet another Opera mystery ???

                              @gp123 This post may habe given the erason for the problem.
                              There is a link that seems to be server as a rss feed and i wonder if it may have triggered the issue.
