Folks,

I reached out to Brightcloud directly and they cant fix this and it has
been 3 weeks.  What can i say besides don’t use them.

https://whois.domaintools.com/172.59.72.103

They are locating 172.32.0.0/11 , which belongs to T-Mobile USA for 10+
years… to China.  There is no reason for them to do this. We have our
geofeed links and ARIN data correct, no changes …

Brightcloud, please fix your stuff: Support Ticket Number: 82871

Everyone else, don’t use geo-policies to block things, and if you do, don’t
use Brightcloud / Opentext

I heard this negatively impacts Microsoft o365 and Azure
