Well this sucks. I depend on these to keep thousands of user's ips private. IPGeoBlock on many of Wordpress installs keep a lot of bad bots (and humans) out - and there are already options baked into that plugin to query several online DB's with the user IP to find country code... Most of my sites that allow other users to login, I keep their data private by telling ipGeoBlock to download the DB onto our server, check that, and NOT query the other online services. Sure would be nice if you could still provide GeoLite2 Country GeoLite2 ASN just remove all the USA ones :) - then I could have it query the downloaded DB if it finds a result block them - and if not result then let them try to login.. So they are going to offer the DB if registered and agree to whatever so called terms.. we should be able to get someone in a country without a jurisdiction that considers USA agreements legal - to get the DB and put it online right? having to sign up with maxmind alone is reducing privacy for me - I guess unintended consequences - but sheesh!
