Lets put a tag on that"I would be REALLY interested to know how you measure mileage with IP. I tried 6 IPs with one of these locator services and one was off by over 2,000 miles, one by 150 miles and 2 by 10 miles.
Again, majority of companies that have that data will not provide it to you for free. In a case of someone like Amazon, they probably wont measure mileage. Rather whey would flag transactions that make no geographic sense and pull them for separate processing. ALex
