i think my phone has been pegasussed or something.

when i'm logged into google with my serafaery account and try to map something, it has for the past month or so given me directions starting from Houston as "your location."

I've never even *been* to houston. definitely not while owning this phone.

i checked, there are no suspicious log in attempts, I've logged out and changed passwords and etc., i reset my current location to where i actually am, it keeps happening.

this morning it told me it would take me 26 hours to drive to my mechanic, lol.

I suppose you aren't running a VPN that would obscure your IP address and fake out geolocation by IP? I get wrong locations on my iPad all the time because of that. But then the Kaiser Permanente website always thinks my desktop computer is in St. Louis for some reason, without the VPN shenanigans.

ooohhhhh, hmm, my husband uses vpn for his work and his company is based in austin, tx - not sure if that would effect my login or not, while sharing the same wifi network, I should ask! thx! :)
