Re: Facebook IP Geolocation

[Peter Potvin via NANOG <nanog () nanog org>]

Hey there TJ,

I have, and unfortunately the databases listed there are reporting the
location correctly. It seems to be an issue specifically with Facebook from
what I'm able to diagnose. I've been reached out to by someone from their
network team regarding this so will update this thread when/if it gets
resolved.

Regards,
Peter Potvin | Executive Director
