VPN Location not in Country Selected

Firefox VPN

Using the VPN, there is an option to select a country. However, this doesn't work. I have tried various countries and with every country I select, I am placed in Chicago. Is there a way to make the location selection more accurate?

Just to double check, after you select e.g. Japan, Spain or Germany, what do these pages tell?

I was already using the first website, and it said that I was in Chicago. I am not in Chicago, so the VPN was working somewhat, just not in the selected country.

Hmm, that might be related to other reports that see only their "recommended" location connected. It might be node availability issue, or speed issue perhaps in case the remote locations do not perform as needed. I don't know anything about the culprit at this moment, but if there's an update I'll drop a note here.
