How does Google recognize what language I speak to show me ads with same language? - Curtis Craig - 11-09-2012 01:09 PM

I am abroad and far away from my home country but the ads that I get on Google or Facebook are in my language. How do Google or other websites know where I am from and what language I speak? I have even registered my Facebook account with my new location in a different country!

The server you are connecting through, means your ISP (Internet Service Provider), it must be located in your country, they knew from which server you are coming from so smartly they direct you to your country site. If you don't want Google to direct you to your countries page, click there a link named <Go to Google.com>
