Odd that Safari for MacOS is somehow "screwing third parties" and making
Opera drop support in protest, but somehow Microsoft providing Internet
Explorer for Windows *isn't* cause for dropping Windows support?
(Yes, I know that's addressed elsewhere in the post, but the statement
from Opera is absolutely ludicrous, and I've paid my $40 for Opera to
get the right to say it.)
