Which service, exactly? I've used ip-api.com, but most of those services rely on whois information whenever available.
Give me the website of any service with a free API and I'll use it if you think it's more accurate.

My current home IP address in Moscow resolves to the UK, but it's configured on a Mikrotik router in Germany and used for VPN connections from Russia.
No one knows that.

WV> 23+3=26. Still a lot more then the 12 that are in the nodelist!?

Sure, because many data centers are located in the Netherlands and those nodes are hosted there.

What for?

Best regards,
