I think the author means passive in a way that no known geoip DB is used.

- lucb1e 10y agoThat would be the opposite of passive: using a geoIP database is passive; probing from/to various locations is active. Another comment mentioned someone monitoring your traffic and noting your RTT (roundtrip time) for various IP addresses around the world. That seems much more likely.
