Folks:

We are trying to monetize some IP addresses that are temporarily not in
use, and the potential customer is using a service "IP2Location" which has
classified our IPs as data center, rather than ISP.  I wrote to "support@"
twice with not even an acknowledgement.  Does anyone have any ideas on how
to get through to them?

I don't know how/why IP2Location suddenly got so important, but if they're
going to play a role in the Internet ecosystem, the least they can do is
acknowledge messages sent to their official support email address.  But I
guess this is just the latest in a very long list of organizations who seem
to be important glue (at least to some people) but who are not acting
responsibly.

Anyway: anyone from IP2Location here?  Anyone have any good contacts
there?  Any advice on how to get them to update?

Thanks as always,

jms
