Lol folks werent even reading my thread properly, all, before throwing out the most obvious, invalidated assumptions. All of the top replies implying I dont know what im talking about.

Sorry folks, devices that ive never, ever signed into, that have never left Seattle, now think theyre in fking Mexico anytime i use a google service. Again, not logged in, but also on browsers that clear everything on exit. The ONLY POSSIBLE EXPLANATION, PERIOD, is that Google took my location data from maps in Mexico and tainted my Seatte IP with it (as i was using my seattle-apt-server as my vpn tailscale exit node)

And to elaborate, the ONLY app on my phone with access to my location is Google Maps.

OP, I 100% believe you, sorry for the comments that clearly just tapped something out without thinking it through.

The computer this screenshot was taken from has never left Seattle. It's a naive Windows machine, no VPN, no nothing, and yet... this: https://i.imgur.com/kVgz1RD.png
