Free version of MaxMind's GeoIP - a lot of services use them but the free version is the most inaccurate. That being said, not sure it's a mistake on the EU thing?
- jfk13 6y agoThe UK has unquestionably left the EU.
- kuroguro 6y agoThought the underlying API may mean something else more generic, but no - just running an outdated version https://dev.maxmind.com/release-note/united-kingdom-will-no-longer-be-flagged-is_in_european_union/ https://dev.maxmind.com/release-note/united-kingdom-will-no-... The free DB has to be re-downloaded monthly IIRC.
- PhillyG 6y agoStill uses GDPR though, so perhaps the label really refers to using EU data law save and they've not updated it to reflect this technicality.
