Is it redirecting you to a local site, or using a different language on Google.com? Maybe you've done https://www.google.com/ncr https://www.google.com/ncr (No Country Redirect) on Chrome, but not on Firefox?
- forgotpwtomain 10y agoNo (not for /ncr) I am saying the default search (think mobile-phone home-screen search-bar) if directed to Chrome almost always tends to work (and if I tell it to switch once to English it will remember across Wifi networks) where as Firefox is more iffy. I'm not sure it's as serious as OP conveys, I mean are you really going to complain about Google failing to track you? But I've been quite annoyed to search for something and get all of my results repetitively in a foreign language. anecodatal: Have seen and paid a large price differences on airline tickets (google flights referrer? ) with and without /ncr ($500++)
