These users will still want Google to return results in their native language.

There are several layers available to Google though -

- They could use the system language setting

- They could use the browser's language setting

- They could use the user's Google account setting if the user is logged in

Corporations could set the system language, or the browser language, and it could still be overridden by the user in their Google account if they wanted to do that. Instead though, Google chooses to geolocate the user's IP address and use that which works for no one.
