iplist

I use NewPipe and choose to stream to Kodi. That has worked fine for the last few years, even with an outdated Kodi YouTube plugin.

I've been running Kodi for over a decade now. It starts on boot, so all I have to do is start the desktop. Remote works with an open source Anroid app, it also allows streaming from Kodi to your phone and vice versa. Youtube works fine, never tried Disney+/Netflix, I'm not sure that's possible.

A while back a similar project launched, one of their competitors mentioned there is virtually no one willing to pay for this. So I wonder if you thought about this, it might require some solid marketing to keep alive. Good luck to you!

Welcome to this shiny new thing, called the internet, where you're allowed to say fuck!

A cron job is running, and currently works as follows:

- Daily: update data from internet registries

- Daily: update ASN data

- Every four hours: update TOR data

- Every minute: traceroutes (in small batches)

- Every minute: update website data: hostname/ip records (in small batches)

Various sources such as public internet registries, domain lists and also traceroutes.

Detecting website visitor locations can be useful to keep track of login patterns or other metrics. For a popular web application I needed to save the IP address and visitor country upon login. If a login attempt was made from an unknown location (or TOR) I could ask the user for a second (or third) factor authentication.

There are plenty of services offering geo IP information and I've tried a few. I've been thoroughly disappointed. Every single paid service managed to "guess" a city and country where I came from and every single one was wrong. The services looked great but upon closer inspection I noticed an alarming amount of incorrect results when analyzing real world data.

I can do better I thought and so I've tried to create a better and free service: iplist.cc

The service is currently handling about 2k requests a minute on busy times for the last two months. The monthly bills are paid for by the other web application I'm selling so my goal is to keep iplist.cc free, as it is self sufficient for now.

Your thoughts?
