So, it's a thing (and has been for a while now) - when you visit a site and it asks something about detecting your location to find your local store or such. There is "allow" and "deny"

I'm not a fan of it. I like putting in my location manually, only because - sometimes - when it detects my location..it detects it in a city I'm not even located in, that's anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 or so hours away. And that's annoying as heck because the city I live in isn't small. It's not super huge, but - by far - not small. Large enough to have one of the Universities of the state of where I live.

Anyway, does it annoy anyone else that - when you choose "Deny", as in, not allowing it to detect your location..IT DOES IT ANYWAY? And updates your local store? It happens EVERY time I select "deny", and it irritates me. What's the point of even asking....
