Thank you for your report! While I am pretty sure it is not related to Opera Mini, I have checked it with Opera for Android team and you definitely should be able to turn the notifications off (ie. "block"). If you are not able to do so, report a bug through the application, please - it will help the team reproduce the issue and work on it.
I am moving your report to Android/Opera for Android board.

There is no way to do this on Android. This Really sucks.
Opera already is completely bent over by Amazon and crams that shit down our throats, but now that I am an admin on a Business Facebook page, I get these damn notifications.
Why can't you simply give me the option to turn it off?
Why did you pick them as the ones to Force down our throats and not all notifications from all sites? think about it, you just took user experience and gave the the big middle finger.
My guess is that is what you will get from users, by way of uninstalls.
Shit experience.

@leocg that is no longer an option on opera on android. I did solve it though. I just uninstalled it.
To annoying with you allowing Amazob to perpetually ask for me to install their
extension. Now this Facebook permanent integration.You guys are truly goibg the wrobg direction

@leocg I am seeing a numerical value on the Opera icon on my home screen when facebook has a notification.
Like the "O" with a "1" on top of it. And when you long press it, there is a "facebook notification" in the overview telling me that I have something.
In todays world of not having 1 free second without some sort of stimulus requesting me to take an action on behalf of some company, so they can make a monetary gain, is unheard of, so good riddance to Opera until this gets resolved.

I do see Facebook listed here twice, but I never authorized it. It was set by default.
I absolutely hate facebook and everything it stands for, so I would never, in a million years, want this or approve it.
This is just a horrible horrible business decision. We are moving towards mobile first and more privacy, yet you are opening the door to the most pervasive thief of information and insecure information sharing, Facebok. God help us.

@leocg No chance. I logged into FB via Opera and then I started seeing the notifications by default. I am very aware of Least Privilege access, so I keep my life run the same way... To me that is a gaping security hole screaming to the world, "Come steal all of my Info and Data". No chance that I would opt into something like that, ever.
