Does your machine have GPS function ? If NOT, it uses your internet connection to work out your location and this may not your REAL location.

To follow-up on what @banhien told you, if the location being used is that of your Internet provider, then unlike the misinformation provided in movies and TV, that is NOT the location of your device -- but instead, the REGISTERED address of the Internet provider.
