I'm not completely sure that Opera could send your data directly to China without employees in Norway making some noise about it, but it's absolutely a possibility and a risk.

It really does underscore one of big problems for China, no one trusts them. The CCP is an actual hindrance for Chinese companies as its involvement prevent them for growing trust in their products and brands. I suppose that's why Opera still uses a lot of mentions of Oslo and Norway on their website. It's better for the brand if people think it's Norwegian.
