Fb know my location even i use private proxy ?

maybe your proxy have a javascript issue , did you read my thread about fingerprints ? http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...8-fingerprints-how-can-website-track-you.html

"An other thing to look is that javascript is disable on the proxy, if JavaScript is allowed, attacks on web proxies are quite easy: a website may simply override the JavaScript methods that should actually protect the proxy from any attacks, with this attack all website can easly know if you are hidding behind a proxy and know your real ip. You can look on http://www.whatismyip.com/ to know if it detect you are behind a proxy. "

@OP, are you using public proxies? I would avoid using them since it's practically blacklisted everywhere.
 
OP, I hate to break it to you but HTML5 does support geolocation which means it can be done at the browser level. Your browser runs on your local machine so the browser can get your true IP regardless if you are behind a proxy. You are assuming FB is looking at the request coming in to their server based on your IP and doing a geo lookup. I could be wrong, but try it on a VPS.

EDIT: You could try using a proxy and IE 7 since IE8 supports HTML5 or running IE in IE7 compatibility mode. Not sure if that will work but just a guess.

I use only private proxies of course.
