Sorry, but it's not for someone else to tell me where my space is (or is not) being used. I think I know where my space 
is being used, better than (what is effectively) a third-party data aggregator.

Regards,
Christopher Hawker

If I tell you (via my Geofeed) my address space is being used in Sydney Australia, you should be presenting it as 
being used in Sydney Australia. Not what you think is accurate or correct.

We focus on the actual or real locations of IP addresses. A great example we show is through our VPN report.
