IP database are like phone books. They’re always accurate until they’re not. For positive confirmation you could always perform a traceroute.

I think tor and Tor Project use IPFire's DB for GeoIP lookups, and 198.13.48.219 shows the following:      NETWORK: 198.13.48.0/20      AUTONOMOUS SYSTEM: AS20473 - AS-CHOOPA      COUNTRY: United States of America https://www.ipfire.org/projects/location/lookup/198.13.48.219 On 1/18/2024 11:22 AM, Jag Talon wrote: > Hello, > > I have a relay in Japan with the IP of 198.13.48.219, but it's being > marked as being in the US.
