- benzofuran 13y agoAnybody else have hits from Beiliu throughout October / November? I've not kept enough up on security news but it seems like there's been sporadic access through there.
- MartinodF 13y agoI remember opening Maps on my Android phone during that period and being localized there (instead of Milan where I live) at least a couple times, so I wouldn't be surprised if that was the reason.
- pgsandstrom 13y agoI have a location in New Delhi, where I have never been. But I doubt this is because my account was hijacked. Both because I have two-step authentication, and because I have no log-ins from outside my city.

- benzofuran 13y agoMy log-in history isn't going back to when the access was. I've got 2-factor reengaged so I'll see if it pops up. Bizarre that would happen as the closest I've been to China in a few months is northwestern Australia. Funny jumps from Perth to central China.
- ohwp 13y agoWell don't be to sure about that. Google locations is very inaccurate.
- BrandonY 13y agoElsewhere in the thread somebody mentioned that a particular location in China around when you got your phone is likely the phone being tested before being shipped to you.
