Re: Google maps
Ah ha. Found this:
Q. How does Google know my location?
A. Google Maps makes use of your web browser's Geolocation feature to determine your location. When you activate the My Location feature, your browser will ask whether you're happy to share your location with Google Maps. If you agree, your browser will attempt to determine your location. This involves analyzing the Wi-Fi access points around you and your computer's IP address, and sending this information to a Google server to then be translated into a location that we can show on the map.
Still scary how accurate it is just off WiFI and IP address
