I am currently using Proton VPN (free tier) which is set to Always-ON and Block Connections on disable.
Today while I am going through my Gmail security option, on the devices/sessions I found my real location mentioned over there. Even when I use desktop I always connect to VPN.
On this issue I got couple of doubts:
- Is this because I am using a free tier VPN? so it’s not functioning properly etc…
- Else google fixed my location based on my previous location history? I used my google applications without VPN for many years, I am just learning & following privacy tips recently.
A good browser will not send most of that info, or it will spoof it.
