I work for IPinfo and I am glad to see privacy detection working. Internally, one thing we sometimes discuss is whether we should use "scores" when it comes to IPs. Personally, I think there is a market for indicating whether an IP is good or bad and giving it a reputation score. However, as a company, we prefer not to do that and there is a good reason for it. There are two core caveats: 1. Ambiguity: Scores can often be ambiguous when determining whether an IP is an "anonymous IP". Having a boolean response for VPN, proxy, or Tor is a simpler solution and we prefer simplicity. 2. Accuracy: We prioritize accuracy and strive for complete coverage. Some "ip reputation" providers essentially just repackage threat feeds. We want to avoid getting involved for now. Our policy is to be reliable and allow our customers to sell IP reputation and cybersecurity solutions using our data. If they wish to create reputation scores using our data, they are more than welcome to do so.
