(long overdue) Follow up on this – after plenty of emails, phone calls, and research, and our poor customers having to 
watch the Packer game, I was able to find out that Sling is using Digital Envoy/DigitalElement for geolocation... I 
assume the info on https://thebrotherswisp.com/index.php/geo-and-vpn/ should work for this, but I am waiting for hear 
back from said geolocation vendor with an answer.

Thanks,
Tim

Subject: Sling TV Geolocation

Yet another geolocation post, because content networks don't pay attention to geofeeds... :-)

Anyone know who Sling TV is using for geolocation, or have a contact at Sling that can help? We acquired a /19 in July 
that we just started pushing out to customers, it is still geolocating back to the previous owner on Sling TV, despite 
publishing the prefix in our geofeed. Checked the usual lists with no luck.

Thanks,
Tim
