It's a funny old world...

Postby yanpa » Tue Nov 29, 2016 12:24 am

After a brief trip to Estonia with an even briefer stopover in Helsinki, my laptop has now been profiled as a) belonging to someone Finnish or b) someone from the Philippines with a burning interest in hotels in Helsinki and Croydon (!) priced in whatever they use in the Philippines to snort cocaine before being shot by the police. Meanwhile Google has decided I'm German.
