    It uses IP addresses, which are based on location. When you view an image on a website, your wifi router connects through other routers to the website(server) that has that image on it. Then your router says to the website "My ip address is 0.0.0.0" and gives a little info about the software and such that you are using. The website then gives you an image.

    This website, before giving you the image, figures out your location using the information that you give them when you connect to their site. It then edits the image to say where you live.

    Absolutely no one. ;)
    It is meant to creep people out. In fact, aikar could figure out where you live by just looking at the server consoles or the web console. It says "MHeller2017 connected from 0.0.0.0"
    There are websites that can identify where an IP is based by just typing into a text field.

    lol
    They get more money the more people that visit their site because of ads. Another thing, advertisements collect just as much info as pictures do, so they can also figure out where you live xD

    The best way to be secure is to just not use a computer connected to the internet ever, but how hard is that nowadays?
