Every time I try and use google, youtube, or spotify. I am being delivered spanish advertising and spanish google results. Spotify adverts are now Spanish!
It's the same for any device on the IP. When I paid for a static IP I assumed it would show up as Great Britain?
Has anyone else experienced this?! It's highly frustrating!

It then played spanish adverts on spotify.
There is no IP masking or MAC spoofing on the router.

I submitted a message to google to say that they are locating my IP incorrectly, but could take 5 weeks. Don't think this will help the Spotify though.

No, just Mods, Admins and you can see your own IP on your own posts.

Which router are you using? Are you using your own DNS servers?
If you go here - https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/map-geolocation (might need to allow it to access your location) does it see you in the right place?

That's scary, I expected it to show Plusnets pop in London but it showed my location exactly.
Do we need to resort the VPN to avoid googles prying?
