      When I checked opera mobile browser on exodus privacy website, it says that opera contains 9 trackers included in app itself while vivaldi and brave contains 0 trackers. Can opera employees explain

      1. why opera includes trackers?
      2. how can you claim that your browser blocks trackers when in reality the browser itself is infested with tracking code?
      3. why should users use your browser when you deceive users stating that it is private and secure?

      Need explanation, no insulting comments.

        @ramij1618 There are several topics about, but here we go.

        Check https://www.opera.com/privacy, https://www.opera.com/terms and https://blogs.opera.com/security/2023/07/debunking-spyware-misinformation/

          @leocg I found this on reddit, can you explain this?

          Opera brand is owned by Golden Brick Capital Private Equity Fund Limited Partnership.
          .....which is a Chinese holding company, hence they are legally required to share whatever data the Chinese government would like. And the Opera User Agreement indicates that when you accept it, you agree to having Opera collect and share a lot of data with "partners".

            @ramij1618 Nope, your information is not correct. As said in the blog post, Opera is a Norwegian company and followed Norwegian and European laws.

              @leocg Do you think the opera preserves well this privacy issue?
