This is my thinking, too, however my recursive DNS servers are all on the
same network as the systems trying to reach google, all of which are on IP
space that I own and announced exclusively by AS 394102 here in the US.
I've also taken care to maintain as many geoip service entries as could be
found/maintained, including maxmind's.  Where they would get the idea that
my packets should go to India is beyond me.

Google's coming back with bom* addresses; no idea why though.

www.google.com.         300     IN      A       172.217.26.228


Hoping someone over there can shed some light on why they are sending my
packets on a world trip.  :)

Thanks,
Matt
