On the My SIP Account page there is a beta implementation of Google maps. When I logged into voipuser.org with a voip service located someplace in the U.S. it would indicate a location of course someplace in the U.S. but I'm actually in Tokyo. Today I logged in with a service that does have a presence in Japan and I don't really know where their facilities are located but when I looked at the map it showed that I was located right in the middle of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. Gee, I feel important.

It's not deliberate I'm afraid - IP based geotargetting is pretty hit and miss.
