Isn&#x27;t this very similar to what they used to do with Opera Mini?<p>The purpose was of course different. Opera Mini added value by optimising the pages for your device (tiny screens, underpowered CPUs, insufficient RAM, small batteries), while the added value of the current proposal is actually defeated when it&#x27;s offered only for free (meaning they get something out of it - not just marketing for a paid offering).<p>&quot;&quot;
Opera Mini requests web pages through Opera Software&#x27;s servers, which process and compress them before sending them to the mobile phone, speeding up transfer by two to three times and dramatically reducing the amount of data transferred, chargeable on many mobile phone data plans. The pre-processing increases compatibility with web pages not designed for mobile phones. However, interactive sites which depend upon the device processing JavaScript do not work properly.
