why is google search using .com and not .ca?
I've been wondering this for a while now. I always thought when using the Google search-bar in Safari that the local used would be according to the IP address. However, I've now confirmed that my iPod Touch at home will use Google Canada, yet Safari on my Macbook will use Google.com and thus show me slightly different results. I want it to use google.ca and not .com - how can I change this?
I did report my IP address to Google as a Canadian address using their form but now that I've seen my iPod Touch use Google Canada I don't know if that was ever the problem. I feel like this is simply a setting hard-coded somewhere in Safari on my Macbook, but can't be sure. Your thoughts? Anyone else having this same issue of the Google search-bar in Safari (the native one) using a different country than you live in?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. 🙂
