Used a VPN to my home while in Mexico. Returned a week ago and all my devices (including those that have never been in Mexico) now show they’re in Mexico. Google’s IP correction form says it can take a month to fix.

So this is just Google punishing you?
Do you believe a multinational company’s business polices are targeting you specifically each time you have a problem?
Not always, but sounds like in this case it seems plausible
Others report the same issue including someone commenting in this posting. From what I can tell Google is targeting private VPN servers on residential IPs.
I’ve used a different private VPN running on a commercial cloud server when traveling internationally. Google has never fucked with the location of that IP.
