Report history
It seems the website resets the profile country to IP's country after a while.
I'm using Google Chrome latest version, win11.
The problem happens only when we set the country to Unknown.
To reproduce it:
1- Set the country to Unknown.
2- Close the browser. (the browser should be completely closed... not just the tab)
3- Re-open the browser and website, and the profile's country is reset to IP's country.
Add something to this report

- Did the problem appears several time? Everytime? Randomly?
