Google outright ignores Accept-Language: en-US and randomly resets your cookies to use the local language based on your IP. They've been hiding the link to change back to English more and more too and have started to show local language search results above english ones (e.g. for Wikipedia) even with the interface set to English. I have nothing but the worst wishes for those responsible.



adding a param "hl=en" (your language) in the URI query is what it takes, it has been this way for around two decades (iirc)
