I wish FT would split this into two fields (each one which you could fill in or leave blank as you prefer), one something like "based in:" and and the other something like "currently in:".

... Meanwhile, did you perhaps just return from a trip from outside of the country and have cookies from that still in your browsers? Or did you log in at the new site once, and perhaps that set cookies on your browsers?
