Why do I have so many sessions from out of my country?

Hello,

I am having a problem where I see I have a lot of sessions from outside of sweden. (which is the only place I sell).

I have 510 sessions from "Iowa, Council Bluffs" but not nearly as many from any city in sweden. (I have 41 from stockholm)

Does anyone know why this is? Thankful for any answers!

Here is a link to a previous discussion explaining this.

Long story short, Shopify uses a google tool (Lighthouse maybe) to determine its Shopify speed score and the google data center is base in Council Bluffs, Iowa. These session details should be ignored. Would be nice to see Shopify automatically ignore these as to not pollute user data in the future.
