Then sometimes you’re like me, living in AZ, not even on a VPN, being told “You Texans should be asking for ID” and just wondering how the fuck that’s happening
I did look it up afterwards and found out it could also be Arizona, but still wasn’t sure. I figured porn sites would also be capable of mysteriously mistaking an Azerbaijani IP for a Texan IP. I also figured internationally obscure ISO 3166-2 subdivision codes were much less likely to come up than ISO 3166-1 country codes given that people are much less likely to know what they are, plus they are much more likely to overlap with each other and cause ambiguity. But it is very American to assume everyone else knows the US’s subdivision codes and Lemmy probably has far more Arizonans than Azerbaijanis, so I wasn’t completely sure either way.

What’s AZ? Azerbaijan?
Arizona, figure the context being the US would at least make that an easy search but guess not.
