"Google One VPN Enhances Privacy with Local IP Address Switching"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by 9to5Google
Google One is updating its VPN to change the default IP address region from broad to local, aiming to improve location-based experiences on apps and websites. This change comes in response to user complaints about inaccurate location information when using the VPN. However, users can still choose to use a broader IP address region for increased privacy. The update will be rolled out starting July 29, 2023, and users are being notified via email.
