Youtube wrong location

[GumaRodak]

Hello, i have an issue with youtube getting wrong location/language of me all the time.
I do use VPN for my internet access, but i am signed to google and youtube, so he should know my settings like country language etc.
But youtube showing me videos in chines or other languages/locations, google search sometimes too.

i dont get this because i am logged in...

on google forums topics related to this are closed with no replies...

any idea how to fix this?
thx

It depends on what VPN proxy server you are using. YouTube may pick up that country/location.

Example, I live in the US. If I were to use a VPN to connect to a UK proxy server, that would be the location point searches, etc would see.

Well, i am trying to use servers from my country, but google sometimes identify it wrong.
I was thinking that the setting of the account are exactly to override this.
Imagine i am traveling the world each week in different country and seeying all the stuff on youtube with foreign languages all the time.. doesn’t make sense …

In my experience for Youtube at least this is normal behavior when using a VPN. The content you are served appears to be based on a combination of account history / subscriptions, IP geo location and what's trending. It's even more obvious in the ads you're served.

So for what reason to be logged in if youtube dont care?

To sync Watch Later lists and subscriptions across devices, I would imagine.
