I got a bit carried away watching that :)

Yes, it looks like that's what I'm referring to.
With me, my muse often sings well when I'm doodling.
The problem is that I sometimes want to return to the doodle,
which becomes problematic when you're sharing a classical whiteboard.

Cheers,

Etienne

In general, my experience with IP Geolocation has been that it’s slightly worse than a bad idea, yet that ship has sailed and like Windows, there are way too many entrenched applications using it for logic to ever prevail.

I believe Amazon runs their own detection service for this and IIRC, they do sell it. I forget the name under which it is marked, but it may well be that they are the common denominator culprit for all 5 you show there.

The good news is if you can get any one of them to fix it, it will likely resolve them all.
