<br>
I don't understand this.<br>
<br>
I go to <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/">http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/</a> and have a look at the exit
node "gigatux" called emohawk2.gigatux.com and located at
78.129.201.189.<br>
<br>
This appears to be located in the UK according to blutmagie.de. <br>

When I go to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.ip2location.com">www.ip2location.com</a> it tells me:<br>

Gmail and click the "details" button which provides me with the
"Activity Information" I am informed that: <br>

This is not the first time I have seen Gmail (Google Mail) claim
an exit node is from a location which exit node websites (like
blutmagie.de) disagree. Why in this case, for example, is Gmail
claiming the exit node IP is in the USA rather than the UK?<br>
