close, but no ip geolocation cigar
 |
Instead of being some 230 miles of inaccuracy the ip geolocation is now just 7.61 miles off ...
BUT it's still not near the level of accuracy to which I hold myself in calculations, particularly when they involve clients of mine.
Such is the lackadaisical attention to detail and accuracy when it's not YOUR data being displayed and you could give a rip about the client being represented incorrectly.
A vendor providing unsatisfactory information should be held accountable. This is not happening either.
My issue with all this revolves around so many absolutely correct ip geolocation queries viz a viz the gd search engines and gd walmart among stupid others.
I will never stop whining about this. They don't even use the whois database for static subnets.
All I can really do is make those I hold responsible take hits in the public sector. So every time I see your logo on the screen of a machine someone is begging me to fix I'm going to walk out and leave the machine broken and tell them to call google to fix it.
Spectrum likewise is going to take hits over this because I don't value them either due to this scenario.
They say it's YOU google. I know it's not, but ...
Boo anyway. You could order the problem to be fixed by your vendor. You could access the whois database yourself. But you don't.
The situation remains improved however. It also remains infuriating.
