Be Aware ⚠️ There's a viral new trend: using ChatGPT's latest AI models (o3 & o4-mini) to figure out locations from photos.

These new models can zoom, crop, and analyze even blurry pics, combined with web search, to pinpoint locations. Think GeoGuessr!

it does this with EXIF metadata, right? Wrong! This works entirely from photo content. This raises serious privacy concerns. Someone can now screenshot your Story and use AI to try and figure out your location. Doxxing gets even easier.

31 years ago, Geir Ivarsøy and I started working on the Opera browser. A year later we founded Opera Software.

At Opera we wrote all our own code from scratch.

In 2011 I left Opera due to disagreement with investors about the direction Opera was heading.

Two years later, I co-founded Vivaldi to build a browser for you.

So I have been building browsers for 31 years. I think I know what it takes to build a browser.

Our Vivaldi team is for the most part in Norway and Iceland with a few people distributed around Europe and a couple of business people in the US.

Vivaldi is available for your computer and your phone, unless you have a very specific setup. Vivaldi might even be available for your car as well.

We go out of our way to provide you with a browser that matches your needs. I hope you like it.
