time zone location

[brownbottle]

in 'system preferences', 'date and time', i have a tick in the box 'set time zone automatically using current location'. my macbook pro time changed while i was out having left machine switched on to hong kong time, and 'date and time' thinks i am in honk kong!!! this has never happened before. i rebooted and i am still showing as hong kong (i am actually in france). have i been hacked or something??? can anyone please help? is there a way of checking if someone has controlled / hacked / logged into my account from a different location?

You weren't hacked. Try resetting NVRAM. Or, just uncheck the box and select the proper time zone.
