Google Starts Tracking All Your Devices in 8 Weeks

With weirdly sticky behavior too once you’ve left that area. My google sign in prompt was in Italian for over a decade after logging in there once on a family vacation. Only with the latest login revamp did that setting finally get purged. Everything else was always english, profile set to english etc.

Bro I speak four languages so whenever I interact with a device it's a mystery in which language it'll talk back to me and I never care. My biggest pain point is that Google Keyboard only supports three languages at once. #polyglotbragging

I’ve just had an issue where my google searches were stuck defaulting to Sydney, Australia after being there for one week.

I think that is a pretty safe assumption from Google. People die trying to leave Sydney.
