Opera can’t be considered trustworthy as of this event (cribbed from Wikipedia):
On 18 July 2016, Opera announced it had sold its browser, privacy and performance apps, and its name to Golden Brick Capital Private Equity Fund I Limited Partnership (a consortium of Chinese investors including Qihoo 360) for an amount of $600 million USD.
- mynewtb 9y agoWhy does a new owner make them untrustworthy?!
- foepys 9y agoBecause it's impossible to run a >$600 million US-Dollar business in China without involvement from the Chinese government. The same government that heavily spies on its citizens and blocks access to the internet with a huge firewall.
- weberc2 9y agoCan you elaborate on the concern? Not challenging your point, just trying to understand how concerned I should be.
