[QUOTE="XLR8R, post: 891460, member: 85385"] That stuff is unfortunately not up to us, the organisation and the government decides. For example, a government official cannot use Zoom for official works in my country as of right now, and one cannot use AVG/Avast in China (HK excluded). I personally enjoy the app, but a lot of this stuff is out of our hands (plus, such things create a lot of headaches for me depending on where I am and who I am dealing with at the moment). Opera is listed because they have a lot of business interests other than just browser development. The browser isn't making them money, their financial transactions/loans business is. Opera has been forced to focus more on those aspects because the browser market share has not grown like the owners had anticipated at the time of acquisition. From that point of view, I was wondering that if the goal is to monetize the browser development, you'd probably think a lot about getting the browser pre-installed on as many computers as possible...
