Inferior-minded people misuse such tools to determine which language to serve the users. That idea will NEVER work, because you can NEVER be sure what language a user understands based on IP. Should never have been let out in the open.

Didn't like that this seems to give away your location without the user (me) knowing it even existed on my system. Removing it.
