Location confusion

Apparently, our company uses a proxy server with a Japanese IP address. Whatismyipaddress.com gives me the following location:

IP Address Japan

 

The problem with this is that some sites present their content according to the country of the visitor, which they determine through the IP. Google is one of those sites. So, opening google.com gives me:

IP Address Japan

As blogger.com also belongs to google, I sometimes get screens like this one: 

IP Address Japan

 

Oh well…
