		jonknee on Feb 28, 2011 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Gmail accidentally resetting accounts I ran into this the other day when routing through Slicehost VPS via a SOCKS proxy (I was on a hotel's unsecured WiFi). Google.com kept redirecting to google.com.hk and was all in Chinese. Nuts. Even more strange was that my IP was showing from St. Louis, which is pretty far from China.

google.com/ncr fixes your cookie so that it won't redirect anymore.
