I just got this popup while playing New vegas. I don't even use chrome, i've switched to firefox. How can this be allowed? Also, this is Win10

Opera sold its soul some years ago. It is also chromium based.

I keep hearing this but can’t find any basis for this

Yeah, since 2013. It's in the wikipedia entry

On 28 May 2013, a beta release of Opera 15 was made available,[49] the first version based on the Chromium project.[50][51] Many distinctive Opera features of the previous versions were dropped, and Opera Mail was separated into a standalone application derived from Opera 12.[52]

I looked it up and corrected my post. Had to change Vivaldi also as it is opera fork.

I honestly thought you were talking about the “opera is owned by china” fud
