Good thing that is exactly what it does.
- mynewtb 10y agoDoes it really? If I remember correctly I got a point and some abstract indicator for the level of accuracy.
- tlrobinson 10y agoThere are multiple geo-ip databases. MaxMind's apparently does give an "accuracy radius" https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip-demo https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip-demo but many others don't, and of course tools built on top of any particular geo-ip database might not present that information to users.
