        @ulkoalex You can turn off the feature if you don't want pages to be blocked when they are added in those third party lists that Opera uses.

          @leocg thanks, I already googled your answer 😃 but the question is how it came that Opera uses those third party lists that can just block paypal.com out of the blue?..

            @ulkoalex If there are many reports, many false positives, such things can happen.

              @leocg yeah, but I hoped sites like paypal should be whitelisted against false positives.. anyways, anything we can/should do here? or just wait until it's resolved?

                @ulkoalex Even those sites can be victims of attackers and turn into a danger for the users.

                I couldn't find a form to report a possible false positive to APWG, so I just sent a message through the Contact Us one. Let's see if that will help.

                  Vivaldi is working pretty good as a meantime replacement until the issue is resolved 🙂

                      @ulkoalex - don't get the fraud warning - getting the run around with Opera GX wont get off the input name, just doesn't move off that page. this problem was reported in March 2022 too. Also matched the settings with 'regular' Opera - regular opera does work with Paypal logon. only GX is a problem now (but few months and years ago worked fine with PP
