Probably cos that's where the mobile phone tower your phone associates with is.

Lol, I have had my location as much as 50-100 km away, from Louth (where a cell tower my phone often connects to is) to Dublin(where my ISP's backbone provider is), but I guess no one gives a shit about the asshole of the united states.
What geoip service are you using to resolve your location?

So this site is associated with a fault in a completely different service which no one associated with this site has the damndest thing to do with?
Do you have an android phone? If you enable precise location sharing it should pick up where your hot spot is located to within a few metres. And then it should use GPD to detect an even more precise location, and whenever you associate with your own wifi it should track you to being within your own house.
It works perfectly for me, obvious invasion of privacy notwithstanding.

Banny, its that little Google thingy that is shaped like a teardrop and shows up in the top.left of your page.
It follows the user around pinging off all the cell towers it comes in contact with and showing the users location of current transmission.

must be special just for you cause i don't have one of those.
possibly symbolism? have you killed before? i heard gang members will get tattoos of teardrops to show they are sad or they are murderers

A teardrop tattoo, actually, on the face indicates one death at the bearers' hands for each teardrop represented.

Yeah, sounds like some kind of third party addon to your browser. I don't know why it does that, nor even why it exists.

Thank you for responding.
How do I get rid of whatever it is?
I've run anti-virus and cleaned everything?
You are so much more computer savvy than I am. Is there any advice you can give me?
