Greetings, friends! Accurate city and country targeting is important for my research, but I have received IPs that resolve to the wrong region. What method would you use to test geolocation consistency across a proxy pool?
Hello from my side, a Thordata checklist — https://www.thordata.com/blog/reside...ting-to-a-plan — explains that you should validate location claims across a representative sample, especially when city targeting affects research or ad verification. Compare several geolocation databases, inspect the ASN and test whether rotation repeatedly returns the requested country instead of drifting elsewhere. Log mismatches and judge the provider by the share of usable exits, not by the largest advertised location count.
