Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Just tested google maps, got:
 {{{
 United States
 Not your current location? Correct it
 }}}
 Exit node wasn't {us}, and google was wrong about actual country.
 Looks like it's default country if google nothing knows about actual geo
 of user. (many geo db reports anonymous proxy country with code A1 for ip
 adresses of tor relays).
