Interesting! A few things:

- Some locations repeat after a short while - Not sure how the randomization is done, but some countries like Botswana and Bulgaria seem over-represented - Address language seems random (often English, sometimes other, not much relation to where location is -- e.g. some US locations had addresses shown in Czech etc.)

A small bias towards more variety was introduced to prevent 80% of locations being in the US. Repeating locations are possible but should be increasingly rare.

I'll further tweak the randomization patterns for the better. And fix the address language indeed.

Thanks for the feedback!
