IP Location issue
So apparently I cannot connect to sites that need to verify your location because my new tmobile internet service shows me as being located in a State that is different from my actual location. Been...
There is probably a manageably small group of services that provide IP-to-geographic-location information to a vast majority of websites.
So, step one would be for T-Mobile to contact these web sites and give them the address ranges TMobile uses and a warning that any information about these IP addresses will be invalid. That right there might be enough for my ROKU to stop showing me ads for Pittsburg, PA.
Sonce TMobile does know our locations (based upon what tower we are using),tep two would be for TMobile to give the IP-to-Location services an API they can call to get an up-to-the-minute accurate location.
Do you read these threads, TMobile?
OK, let’s roll… and, hey...Lets be careful out there.
