[Bug 197898] Re: Website get rerouted to a Japanese version

[Alfredo Matos]

Hi. Thanks for reporting this behavior, but this is a Google "feature"
which detects the connecting IP address and redirects to the
localization it thinks is best suited. Pressing the go to Google.com in
English button fixes this.

There is currently no way for the browser to hide you current IP
address, unless some extensive privacy mechanisms are used, which are
mostly not available in today's networks. You can try to user Tor, which
is an onion router implementation.
