It recently took me 3 days to find out why Google knows my exact location despite the VPN. I deactivated all geo settings in Firefox, deactivated WebRTC etc.
In the end, it turned out that IPv6 was giving away my location. The Wireguard VPN runs over IPv4.
After deactivating IPv6 in the network settings, Google greeted me with Japanese characters :-)
