Why is the red circle flashing on the tab? I was sitting quietly at the computer, but a circle appeared on one of the tabs, then it happened again. What it is??

@leocg a red circle in the corner of a browser tab. It blinks as if it's recording something. I removed access to the microphone and it stopped, but why is there such a thing on the site with music in general, I did not give permission to the microphone there.

If you did not give permission for recording (via microphone and or camera), maybe some extension did it. At the URL
opera://extensions, you can disable your extensions one by one (testing after disabling each) to see if one is causing it. -

Yes it's true. Yesterday I checked one extension for sound in the browser, when you turn it on, this circle appears. thanks for the help
