      There is an experimental feature that allows you to add sites to the sidebar.

          does desktop opera version 73 include a vpn? a website I use has now required the use of a vpn for the news site I use. No Free vpn I tried works for various reasons I do not understand. does Opera's really work or am I locked out of the content provided by a specific website? as of now I need to use a different website to access the same news site. solutions please. I will try Opera to access the same news site and see what happens. it will be a yes or no. no other choices or fixes.

                    Is Opera safe and does it respect privacy and security like Brave and Firefox Does. I ask because it seems opera does not have a good reputation when it comes to privacy and security.

                      @powerdragonhd You can read Opera's privacy policy and take your own conclusion.

                      Regarding security, Opera is probably one of the most secure browsers.

                        @leocg Ok thank you for the response. Is this information still true with Opera the Company https://forums.opera.com/topic/37155/opera-browser-is-owned-by-a-chinese-company/10. and what I'm trying to say is Opera Just as safe as Brave and Firefox with you data and Privacy? sorry if the grammar does not make since I just did not know how to word that properly.

                            Ok. I'm saying is does Opera still follow Norway Privacy laws because it Owned by a Chinese Company read this reddit article and tell me if this is correct or not: https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/7u7ksj/opera_for_example_is_a_norwegian_company/dtij7yb/

                              @powerdragonhd https://www.opera.com/about Yes, Opera is a Norwegian company and always will be, unless they close the company and open a new one somewhere else.

                                  @leocg what agent string do you recommend for Opera Because some websites don't support opera or the coding for some reason.

                                      @powerdragonhd The original one without its Opera part should help solving such issues.

                                          @powerdragonhd Keep only the Chromium part of the user agent, remove the OPeRa part of it.
