    It does absolutely nothing, the website still keeps on switching the language and currency at random

    2023-05-03 Doesn't work... and the true way to revert is to dump all your cache's including saved site specifics. Annoying, but the only way to keep the page in English. For me it keeps changing my preferred English to Russian, Korean, Vietnamese, Spanish and Italian. I even got a page in Hebrew once. It seems like if a sellers store has a default language set for their page, it automatically changes our default setting to theirs once we visit. After we leave our entire page changes to their language preference as the shown language even though it will still say, "English" up top... Real stupid eh.
