Investigate GeoIP-based search results feature in ESR 38

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1102295 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1102297

We should investigate possible information leaks and I guess ways to disable/neuter this feature as we ship Disconnect.me with en-US as default.
