You would prefer companies know your citizenship and immigration status, somehow verify that, and tie their services to it? And that would somehow preserve your privacy better than geolocation?
- theonemind 4y agoHe'd probably prefer that Google just not switch his account based on the circumstantial evidence (as such) of accessing his account from Spain.
- cft 4y agoYes, i can submit photos holding my passport with a piece of paper with a code written on it, my driver's license: somehow it's enough for the KYC in all crypto exchanges and in all online stock brokers, but Google won't take that.
- supermatt 4y agoGoogle cant even get my language right - and its right there in my request headers. For some reason they always want to base it on geolocation. And then, when you go to change the language, it shows all the language options in the language you are trying to translate from. So useful for people travelling to countries where they dont speak the language, or cant distinguish the characters... Geolocation is a sucky way of deciding anything about a user.
