undefined characters in forum or facebook posts

Sometimes, when I comment with facebook (on oter sites) there is a white square in the middle of the word, some undefined character. Same thing happening in youtube links, and those links are useless. Is this some sort of censorship, Opera side thing or...whatever?
And if its not a bug, is there a script, extension ... that could remove that square character from posts?

They are zero-width spaces, inserted by some web sites to allow long URLs to wrap.

A link to a thread on YouTube where this problem exists might help.

I have the same problem with Facebook links.
Also on every Youtube comment, there is a small diamond looking like dot, which I learned to be BOM from the code. Today it started appearing on G+ comments as well.
Here is how it looks.

I know other people with Opera (they have probably latest 11.62, I have 11.60), that don't experience this. One other mentioned the problem with rectangles on Facebook links too.

Our country has a serious deficiency in lighthouses. I assume the main reason is that we have no sea.
