Cat and mouse game seem to be nowhere near its end. And totally agree, businesses will happily play it forever.
Why geo ip? Naivety/ignorance coupled with the outdated business logic that segmenting audiences to skim customers to the max will continue to be the winning strategy. It rarely come from within IT brainstorming, those in denial or sticking to short sighted green are the business strategists also being vaguely sold that controlling can be done (and to some degree yes it can be so long as consumers bases don't in their majority adopt privacy measures and moan when being unlegitimately denied access)
On the more forgiving side, it does help easily monitor kiddy attacks altogether, if there is no market in Takjistan, why bother looking at false vs true positives coming from there, dumb scripts are dumb but can still be costly for the network management team.
