Hi !It sucks !
Sorry but the VPN option have a problem. Now, with a option "bests results" (meilleurs emplacements) or Americas, (for it's for Canada), nothing works at all.
And on the player's screen, when I want to see a vid, I can read "Conformément aux droits de diffusion, le contenu sélectionné n'est pas disponible dans votre pays." (I'm sorry I' from Belgium and I talk French)
Like other people I'm very disapoint.
I have the lastest version of Opera (50.0.2762.45 (PGO))
Someone can help us ?Many thanks and sorry for my english

Using Opera 49.0.2725.64. Last couple days, at least, been getting decent speeds using Opera VPN. Videos still play balky though but better than last week. Hopefully they are improving things. Been using Missouri USA and Columbia locations which have been giving better results than the others.

You could also change DNS to those of OpenNic. And if you will, you can setup DNScrypt.
In your router, remember to block all ISP DNS, email them (or search) for full list. -
acidinmyfridge last edited by acidinmyfridge@rudrick will check out OpenNic nods
was asking about that HOXX proxy simply out of curiousity ^_^ always interesting to see what other people use.currently, i am using this free vpn extension together with extensions like this and this. so far so good, works quite well.
And i was looking at ScriptSafe. Haven't gotten around to try it out yet though.You think you know, but you have no idea.

^That seems to be the fastest of the VPN's. Heck I could just switch to Vivaldi - and have my browsing with split screens, web panels, etc etc etc etc etc(!)
I find uMatrix good - the developer of that ext (also uBlock Origin) is very trusted person among circles.
*** ublock origin also has a "hard mode" which it then basically is umatrix.

@rudrick i'm using Vivaldi too. and i'm very fond of it. so customizable!
tab stacking!
so neat! Wondering if they're gonna implement VPN as well.
also using uBlock Origin for a few weeks now. i quite like it. Haven't tried uMatrix yet, but it's on my list

If they do, it will be a good while from now. They have their hands full just developing the features they've been promising, plus they don't have the server farm/portals to support a VPN (or the cash flow to rent it).

Vivaldi is not looking to VPN.
I talk with the devs sometimes, they are quite nice. I wish they would open source that Tab Stacking of viv -

@rudrick @blackbird71 oh well, even if they won't implement a VPN.. I think the VPN extension i am using is fairly decent and a good solution.
Yes, that'd be great if they'd open source the tab stackingYou think you know, but you have no idea.

Yes that VPN Ext you pointed out is fast compared to many others.

@acidinmyfridge I pay nothing for HOXX and IP leak stopper. It all works fine in the SEEMLESS addon world of Firefox.
No one should even bother using Opera until the VPN is fixed because Firefox is just as "community" and "open". Opera has no obligation to be used. People should stop being hung up on Opera. All browsers are tools for us to use, and if the tool doesn't work, put it down and use something else.
I use whatever web browser works best for what I'm doing; so that's about 90% Firefox with or without VPN on (because I'm not paranoid), and about 10% MS IE. Oh my, am I a devil for using MS IE? No, what's the big deal? I just prefer Firefox most of the time. Opera was a toy I tried for a while and it's just not good enough at the moment. I don't generally need to switch ON a VPN because I'm not a criminal and I'm not important enough to be snooped on. -

37Mbps Sky fibre paid for into house produces, using speedtest.net-37.67Mbps on Firefox VPN OFF
37.64Mbps on Firefox HOXX VPN ON to UK server37.7Mbps on Opera VPN OFF
1.67Mbps on Opera VPN ON to optimum <<<<<<<<<<<<< patheticThat's 1 decimal 67, 1.67. Hopeless.

Hello,
My Opera ver. 50.0 can't connect to VPN from a couple of days. Earlier everything worked OK. Now the connecting lasts forever. Could you fix it please?

I would say that the majority of those using a VPN are doing it to access blocked content, followed most probably by those who are afraid of their government.
A (very) low percentage cares that much about privacy to the point of using a VPN, I would say.
i wouldn't call 80% of americans fighting "Their government" to protect net neutrality or to try to block the reauthorization of fisa a "low percentage"

@chuchkyschild My comments are not rude nor simple minded, and personal insults do not win arguments.
I don't have BS argument and I'm not an idiot; I'm an ex-IT professional with an IQ140. You have an overinflated fear of loss of privacy, and in any event if you really fear a loss of privacy you'd avoid the internet completely. No body has a right to privacy, you only have the rights given to you by your country of residence's government laws. If you don't understand that then your ignorant of the need of a modern, open, liberal, peaceful but lawfully run democracy. I note you have child in your handle, and that certainly sums up your state of mind.
It is simple minded to think you have a right to full privacy. Your reasoning lacks maturity and big picture awareness. Look at the whole board, not just one square. -

@chuchkyschild Net neutrality is a different subject to privacy. Stick to the point. Furthermore, provide the valid source of your 80% statistic.
