You're trying to solve the wrong problem. Since you have a legal 
requirement that would be violated by sending stuff to a bad place, you 
should only send it to a known good place.

Therefore, instead of trying to identify the bad places to block them, you 
should be trying to identify the good places that should be allowed 
access. If someone from a good place can't get in, then give them a web 
page to register a complaint and check it out manually if you think it is 
worth your while.
