Most people have the opposite issue. I would think that your IP has made some Hardware Changes and installed something closer to you. Also check Facebook settings and turn off what ever might be new or is showing your location in there.

In the Address Bar the i in a Circle - Click while on Facebook Then Click the Arrow then More Information then Permissions and untick the things you do not want to share along with location. Remember what you have done. Test by log out then back in.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

"We noticed a recent login for your account xxxx

Device Windows Location* Washington, USA

  • Location is approximate based on the login's IP address.

If this was you: Great! There's nothing else you need to do"
