Description

Easily change your geographic location (Geolocation) to a desired one and protect your privacy.

Change Geolocation (Location Guard) is a browser extension that let you easily change your geographic location to the desired value and protect your privacy.

Simply open the addon's options page and set the latitude and longitude for where you want the geolocation to be (the default location is Greenwich, UK). Next, reload a page and check your location (i.e. webbrowsertools.com/geolocation/). Please note that besides latitude and longitude you can set other variables in the geolocation API (see options page). Moreover, pressing on the toolbar icon will activate or deactivate the addon.

Note: toolbar button serves as an ON|OFF switch to activate and deactivate the addon. The green color is for ON and the grey color is for the OFF state.

To report bugs, please fill out the bug report form on the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/change-geolocation.html).

its not working.. added the desired lat long but still detecting the original location.

This will not work for testing things that use IP address to check your location.

Not sure why there are so many bad ratings. This one completely works for me. And I have verified it using multiple ways to detect your location. If you know what you're doing (hint: if your IP location is set with a broader region rather than with your local region), you will definitely figure this out. BRAVO, developer! I love that this is free. I really wanted to leave a review because the overall ratings do not match up with my own experience. It's good to know that others also have figured it out and left a good rating. To me this is an excellent product. This works well for my professional sports viewing habits.
