I used to use Opera because of it's privacy features. Being able to have different configuration of javascript, cookies, referals, content blocking and so on. Now with Opera 16 all these features are gone.

How do you increase you're competitive abilities by removing everything that made you unique when you're already the underdog? :S

You forget to mention that they are "per site" preferences.

But wtf they removed this too?? What is wrong with those people?

Per-site preferences will be returning to Opera in a future version, so don't lose hope.
