> I think using geo IP is borderline spyware behaviour.
With corporate VPNs it often doesn't work anyway. Even though I'm not in the US, I sometimes am forced to use the US VPN access point (e.g. because someone forgot to add the IP range for the non-US VPN access points to the firewall rule for internal service X, and if I complain it will be fixed in a day or two, but I need to use internal service X right now). While I'm doing that, websites will think I'm in the US, even though I'm on the other side of the planet.
