Opera Mini's been doing this for more than a year. And Opera Mini is one of the main browsers on Android phones.
Works fine with Opera for iPad. Better than Safari imho.
- jerf 15y agoOpera doesn't have the other concerns raised here. They aren't vendors of anything else themselves, and have no particular reason to use their data to further other goals they may have. The question of whether this technically "works" is uninteresting. The answer is yes.
- lukeschlather 15y agoI would worry about Opera precisely because they aren't vendors of anything else themselves. Amazon can run these servers just to increase the cachet of the tablets they sell. Opera needs to make sure that the servers they're running are bringing in income.
- rapind 15y agoOpera inserts ads via this proxy. They bought AdMarvel last year. I'd say that's a good reason to check out your data. http://www.admarvel.com/OMAE.html http://www.admarvel.com/OMAE.html
- jerf 15y agoOh dear. I'm surprised someone hasn't had a major-league lawyers-involved hissy fit about this. Thanks for the info!
