<![CDATA[Playing Youtube Videos in Opera Private Window]]>I've just switched to Opera from Firefox.

Today I tried watching a youtube video in an Opera private window and got a warning message that Google does not permit watching videos in private mode and will track all my youtube activity.

Opera offered me a choice between two options, but I can't recall now exactly what they were. I selected one at random to see what would happen, and then was asked if I wanted Opera to remember my choice. I selected yes.

Nothing of note seemed to happen as a result of the option I chose, but now I'm wondering what the difference between those two options is, and where I can find them in the settings.

Also, I never saw such message when watching any Youtube video in a private window. So, unless that message is triggered by geographic location, it may be interesting to check your system for malwares.
