"Much of our security software is Russian, Romanian, Chinese." mine isnt

"If we believe the US or UK governments are not spying on us, we're delusional." i agree and windows 10 is the best proof, but thats not the issue here.

the issue is, an american company has to follow american laws. a chinese company has to follow chinese laws and you cant deny the censorship and all the other bullcrap that is going on. you can tell about america whatever you want, but you still got freedom of speech over there and thats something you simply dont have in china. even if opera is a product for international use, it has to be modified to satisfy the chinese government and if some changes are against the laws of the country you live in, well, good luck to see them care. its a chinese product now and china is all that matters. everything else is second-tier.

#StillYourOpera, no its not. if you sell something, its not yours anymore.

im extremly disappointed and disgusted by this news. there is more to life than just money and if you actually cared about the product and its userbase, you would have never agreed to that deal.

opera is an european product and its sickening to see another great software go. especially to a chinese company that supports censorship and backdoors.

i have been using opera since more than 10 years, but when that day comes, im gone.
