Interesting. Why not offer the db as files to download for faster local lookup though? That's what geoip databases do (for a price).
As someone else pointed out, yeah its free to download anyway.

#12But why? Firehol seems entirely dead at this point. Take a look at the bug reports on github, on the IP address change metric, and research the people behind it. They seem to have moved on. It's not being maintained, and still pulls from defunct lists, dead lists, and so on.
I found no better alternative as the source of data TBH. Open to suggestions. This is a toy project anyway, It won’t be exhaustive for sure and I don’t expect anyone to use it in production.
Thanks for the info though, I didn’t know firehol was in such a bad state
