Google has russia for my IP

I still have the fixed IPv4 you have allocated many many many years ago and I don't want to give that one up yet.

Somehow my IP is in russia according to google, all othe geolocation services reports the UK. Google uses their own geolocation database, because they think they know better 😞

I have reported the IP through the Google help page for weeks now but no updates, probably because they ignore individuals.

There is also an ISP reporting service (isp.google.com) that google is more responsive to (apparently). Would PN or BT be able to report my IP as being in the UK....

Hey, sorry to see what's happened.

We've raised a ticket to Google, will let you know when we know more. 

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.
