And what a privacy nightmare, particularly with IPv6. When I see a map of my home IPv4, it's within a mile or two. With IPv6, it's on my block.
But at least the companies I consult can block Chinese IP addresses from their public web presence. Chinese security will never think to stand up a server in the US or Europe.
(Yes, I know it can help block noisy log generation).
If you're getting targeted to your block with IPv6, your ISP is likely giving away your data. VPNs are your friend.
ime geoip is at best able to identify the country, but yours are both scarily accurate, which isp?
