Default HTML5 Geolocation API - SCARY GOOD

Never enable this feature. This feature will reveal your most accurate location even when you are behind a VPN. It's ****ing SCARY how accurate it is.... I dare you to test this feature...

Default Re: HTML5 Geolocation API - SCARY GOOD

I just tried it.....it says my location is at my local Post Office.
www.whoer.net also has me as my location at my Post Office.


Tried it with my Proxy, says I'm at "Metro Human Resources Department"
whoer.net


I should point out that the 1st one (Post Office) was in my city, and my Proxy is in the same City I live in.
