Hi there, I'm seeing the same wrong location with secondary email addresses as well. I've filed this bug: https://github.com/mozilla/fxa/issues/8038

Hi, https://accounts.firefox.com/settings shows wrong location as well (Boardman, OR, United States)
Issue on both FF 89.0 (64-bit) on Linux and FF 89.1.1 Android, so my guess is that the issue is somewhere on server side...

Hi there, we broke this last week, but I've deployed a new version of Firefox Accounts that fixes this bug. Can you verify you're seeing the correct location again?
