      Are the hidden extensions like Aliexpress Observer and Amazon Promotion disabled in Private Window? I don't see a way to verify that. Hoping somebody knows.

        @Keepskite 24a2a36c-4b3b-4194-a456-97c0e994422d-image.png I guess that means they're active in incognito (private window)
        You can deactivate it though (uncheck it) and if we can trust Opera that means it's deactivated in Incognito mode.

          for me Amazon shows disabled.
          Ali Express shows enabled, along with other unknown spying extensions

            @xtorbax The trouble with that is when I open a private window and then check all those hidden extensions for which I have unchecked the boxes, those Allow in incognito boxes have been re-checked by Opera. So I guess the answer is they are active in Private window and are going to stay active. That's getting a bit intrusive in my book and I hope O comes to their senses on this.
