I understood that. Let me replay it from my mind, how i percieved it. There is the dark map with white contours. And yellow points on it, which represent the triangualiton servers, i guess? Even clickable, at least the RED point which represents my assumed location sometimes moved. Most notably when i clicked on London, then it hopped to Odessa. Otherwise, it was mostly in the northeast region of the Black Sea. In the light of the recent IPv4-space acquisition of my ISP, which i wrote about containing addresses formerly used in the Ukraine, Russia, Irak and Iran, causing "funny" issues...what would you have thought?

edit: btw. tested in latest Firefox with uBlock Origin on/off. and Iridium Browser (Chromium derivative), retested in Iridium only after 24h dyn-ip renewal. Same results.
Anyways, time to sleep. Sun's getting too bright.
