So I am testing out a new contract I have been working on in Remix.
I expected that the Account I selected would be the one associated with the actual contract, but it is not.
In fact, I tried it a second time and got a different contract again:
Could this have something to do with the fact that I am not currently logged in to Metamask?
In ethereum, there are two kinds of accounts: contracts and external accounts. Every account is identified by an address, and all accounts share the same address space.
So, every time you deploy a new contract you will get a different address and this has nothing to do with from which account you are deploying the smart contract.

Hope it helps!
