I'm working in Berlin for a few weeks - searching or typing in an URL will default to the German language version of the site and not allow visiting the English language site. How to stop this?

Thanks

Ben

Hey, Websites guess your location based on your IP address, so based on your location you will always be redirected to the local version of the website. A workaround for this is to use a VPN and change the location according to your liking to make the default language as English.
