== Issues with Google ==
 
I've long ignored the discrepancy between google maps' blue dot ___location for me and my Google account address which they have. Now Google puts a weather report on my google news feed for that wrong ___location with no way to change its ___location or remove the useless report. I also have no way to disable or limit the AI mode overview which is unreliable and too often ends with me frequently correcting it only for it to forget even in the same sessions. I see that the ducky search engine allows for tailoring the usage of its AI. Bye bye Google search. But back to my question, Asking google how to stop automatically using my ip ___location which is about 80 miles away has gotten me absolutely nowhere. It has always been an issue with websites I visit and I have to enter it despitebecause Googlemy havingbrowsers don't share it. I'll likely abandon the Google news page too now, unless there is an easy fix for this. Any idea(s)? [[User:Modocc|Modocc]] ([[User talk:Modocc|talk]]) 23:25, 25 August 2025 (UTC)
