When you use a VPN, your actual IP address is replaced with a temporary one assigned by your VPN provider. This temporary IP address is based on the server location you have chosen.

Despite the anonymity that a VPN may provide, Facebook can still determine the general area where your VPN server is located. This is because the data traveling through the VPN server still has to pass through various internet nodes.

It's important to understand that a VPN's main function is to enhance your privacy and security online. It does this by encrypting your data and replacing your actual IP address with a temporary one.

Facebook has the capability to identify the location of your VPN server. This is due to the fact that a VPN works by routing your internet connection through a server in a different location.
