      Hi everyone,
      this is my 3rd account, but I had a break for a while and the last one was deleted.

      How to make Opera more private and safe?
      And I don't mean just hiding IP, but more complex one.

      I want to remove some Google spy, build in chromium, like:

      Installation-ID
      Alternate Error Pages
      Error Reporting
      RLZ-Tracking
      URL-Tracker
      Disable "Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors"
      Disable link auditing (<a ping="...">)
      Don't report Safe Browsing overrides
      Don't use autofill download service.
      Disable the battery status API.
      Disable Extended Validation Certificate
      Disable Google cloud printing
      Disable Google hot word detection
      Disable Google promotion fetching

      I think most of this is achievable, but I haven't figured out how yet.
      Maybe there is already a guide like this on the forum, or in FAQ, but I was just looking in the wrong place.

        To enable Opera's free built-in VPN service: Go to Settings (Alt+P) Advanced > Privacy & security. Under VPN, click Enable VPN. A built-in VPN badge will appear at the left end of your address and search bar.
