    I've seen it but it's buggy and lacking in features. Feels like an afterthought instead of a real product

    Honestly I would build it if I knew how to properly market it to quickly get users. Globalping and jsDelivr took years to gain a meaningful user base

    Off topic but I wonder when Cloudflare is going to launch their own Docker registry as a product.

    I run about 270 servers in verified locations as part of the Globalping network https://globalping.io/users/jimaek so I had plenty of targets to test I tested against them, as well…

    I talk a little about it in the article, but the main goal was to build something simple that works as proof of concept. This brute force approach works much better than I expected…

    Atlas is great but it is focused more on academic research and professional use. Globalping offers real-time result streaming and a simpler user experience with focus on integratio…

    I talk about it a bit in the article. The easiest solution is to use the last available hop. In most cases its close enough to properly detect the country even if the target blocks…
