Isn't that SFO IP anycast?

I get the same results from opendns, 8.8.8.8 etc:

$ for ns in $(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep nameserver | awk '{print $NF}'); do dig @$ns google.de +short; done

Yep, pretty much all of Google's internal and premium GCP network is Anycast. You'll be terminated to Google's network on your continent, no matter what the DB says: Obviously that's impossible to tag correctly in any GeoIP database.
