if you on linux, you can use this shell script to do it automatically (run it before opera start or put it on autorun)

cd ~/.config/opera/Default
for file in Preferences Preferences.backup Secure\ Preferences Secure\ Preferences.backup;
do
    sed -i s/\"blacklist\":true/\"blacklist\":false/g "$file"
    sed -i s/\"blacklist_state\":1/\"blacklist_state\":0/g "$file"
done

and all this problems bcs some idiots put tampermonkey in their ad virus 🤦♂

Anyway, you can always suggest creating a way to disable it.
