I’ve tried extensions which detect location/IP, but these seem easily bypassed by anyone with adblock.
I’ve had a huge influx of users crashing my site raising my API costs, but which I can’t monetize. I’d like to restrict users from these regions, but have had little success with everything i’ve tried so far.
I use the two attached. How do you know that there are people scamming your site?
I have the main table and the table that captures access to my system, so I have information on the person’s city, state and country, without them knowing. But variation can occur in the following way, if the output of the person’s router is through a server and does not have DNS configured and is using DNS from the server itself, it will probably have a different city from the person’s city.
But tell me more… I can’t wait and thanks for sharing…**
I have two tables, the image log1 is the table for the accesses, the second table is for the records (log) of who accessed it through user and password, with that you could block unwanted addresses, in a first idea.
