Google Update!??

As of today 17-02-13 Google forces local results on me only. Even if i change my search prefrances use another machine or browser, sign in and or sign out. I still only get shown local results. I seem unable to turn this off..

Now I know Google where going to go down the local result route but this just seems stupid as its crippled the browser for me? Not even adds display as none are paid for my area and keywords.

Has anyone else noticed this? Or had it happened to them?

At a loss at the moment

  • Haven`t seen any update so far ... but results do differ slightly depending on the browser you`re using - firefox vs chrome for local results.
