I think I'll stay at this old version anyway, it was less buggy than current 5x builds.

As to physical server locations of Opera VPN - Netherlands used to (at least) have the best internet privacy laws.

Websites either load after 20-30 seconds, or fail to load with a timeout. I'm based in the Boston, MA area using Optimal Location (when I switch to Americas it's even worse - I think I'm connected to a European server).

On what do you base that? As I understand it, the economics of establishing a server network sufficient to support and maintain a built-in browser VPN network is beyond Vivaldi's current reach and not a high priority for them (if even being seriously considered at all) - at present, they are still trying to get reliable sync (which requires merely a single server site) deployed.

Now that is a brilliant decision on the part of the Opera Developers! You put yourself well beyond the machinations of President Trump but defeat the whole purpose of VPN accessibility...

The last time I checked, Ecuador was located in South America. The term "Americas" is accurate in that it refers to a VPN server site largely serving users in both North and South America. The economics of where a VPN server is best sited go well beyond politics and borders.

The speed is acceptable, over 2mbit/s at least.

Why should I be forced to update to the new version, which has more bugs and is worse in general? (including the missing entries "Add Bookmark" in the bookmarks bar folders).

Is it true, that the new VPN version is not capable of hiding DNS requests? It would be a huge privacy hole.

It seems that the old version was still pointing to SurfEasy - since worked better than the new one -, so they had to block it and force the upgrade.
