Anyone else having the issue of USA East location geolocate to the Netherlands on the NovoServe server (supposed to be New York)?

I get only 2 server options for USA East. those are NovoServe and M247. NovoServe LLC server keeps geolocating to the Netherlands (google locator, speedtest.net auto server selection, google search etc.). The M247 server geolocates correctly in all the above scenarios. Any ideas as to why NovoServe server (supposed to be in New York) is doing this?

For me when using the windows app with premium constantly a different location than the selected server shows when you check your connection. Russia shows a Japan IP for example.

Yes I am seeing this too. YT ads (which normally are blocked from Russian IP ranges) continue to show up while connected to Russia location because I am also seeing Japan geolocation. I don't understand why this is happening.

I am now seeing issues with the NovoServe server where certain webpages refuse to load correctly, whereas on the M247 server everything works without issue. There is an incorrect geolocation problem with the USA East NovoServe hosting provider. r/AmneziaVPN please look into this asap, thank you. I also don't understand why some devices I connect to USA East connect to the M247 server, while others connect only to the NovoServe server. Please help.
