I mean I don't really care if China has my data. Rather them than a US company. Not much china's government can do about me (and not like I'm gonna be some high priority target for them so, whatever. If they wanted my data that bad they could just buy it from every American company anyways. )

Understandable though if you don't want china having your data. I just have mostly given up on caring about it. Someone is gonna have my data anyways.

Its not the point of China having your data. Its the point of opera sells that data, and they have it in the first place

Not everyone cares so much about that.

Someone knowing things about me in general is not a big deal.

Don't fund their army with your data dude. Switch to some Firefox fork ASAP.
