Default eBay requesting access through Firewall?

I noticed something weird when creating accounts on Opera Browser. As soon as I go to eBay. eBay wants to allow access through windows firewall. It has to be ebay website because it happen as soon as I go to ebay. I’m using default windows firewall settings so I’m not sure why eBay is requesting access. I did not allow it I just close it. Very weird.

They are doing fingerprinting to spot if you have other accs with them.

It’s weird though.. I never had eBay request to allow firewall on any browser like edge, chrome or Firefox. I noticed it’s only wit Opera. Opera must have some nice security/privacy

Use Firefox instead.
I've had best results with it.
No Chrome no Operas, nothing. Just firefox.
