> After staying in one region consistently, all the big tech companies will automatically switch your region for you. I have been using an iPhone with a British Apple ID and the British App Store, and the UK regional settings on some devices despite not living there anymore for a couple of years now.

I don’t think they change anything about your accounts or device settings themselves, though.
