Hello all.
I'm in Afghanistan. My family sent me a flashy new Android tablet to play with. So after finding an internet signal, I tried downloading Apps from home.
The problem was, US apps don't download overseas!
So:
I loaded up a VPN back to the states, no dice.
I turned off all of the GPS location, Wifi location options, no dice.
I set the clock to Eastern Standard Time, no dice.
I installed a GPS spoofer and located myself in America, no dice.
Any and all combinations of the above fail.
What gives? How does Google know I'm here?
Thanks!
