Good day, it may be a minor bug but still bugs me:
19:02:13 - 15/08/24 You logged in from EDITED (United States)
This absolutely fake, ofc it's me logged in at this hour, but I'm not in USA. We Colombians need VISA and A LOT of requirements to even put a single foot in USA. I'm logged in Puerto Gaitan, Meta, deep into Colombia. Not sure why it's happening but i'm absolutely sure i'm not in the USA. Need pics? I can prove it.
IPs generally don't have a location to them. There are companies that are collecting and then selling this data, but this does not mean its correct forever
Seems that IP previously belonged to a US based ISP.
Passing along to Joe.
Thanks..!!
I've edited out your personal information, Ched can view it from the activity log.
It appears it's just the IP range having changed what we track location on, likely needs an update. The IP is right, Torn is incorrectly saying it's USA when it is not.
I've updated the GeoIP database, which should correct this. Thanks.
I still don’t get why people want to go to the US. It’s more backwards than nearly every country I’ve been to (and I travel a lot!)
