Why is My IP Address Showing as US Instead of France? Possible Server Issue

[Mokae]

Could someone tell me why my IP belongs to US whereas I am in France ? Yes I am inb France, someone has done something in the server ?

The person that registered the IP address apparently registered one in the US. I had a friend in Italy that wanted his company to appear in the US, so selected a US IP address.

That sounds strange, why is it ?

There is thing, called proxy. You can hide your IP address, with another one. Are you using geolocator? Sometimes the geolocators make huge mislocations.

Do a whois on it to find more information if you need to.
