Check if Geo-blocking is working

  • 772

I am trying to verify that geo-blocking is working. I'm basically looking for a list of website IPs or domain-names that are hosted outside of the United States so that I can verify that they are blocked. Anyone have a list or know where I can find one? Google and duckduckgo haven't helped.

Feel free to close this question. I'm gonna answer with an IP I found

    Pick from your favorite threat intelligence database. Select some names and IPs that geolocate to, or have ASs operated by organizations in, the geo of interest.

    Check both what should definitely be allowed (domains you control, your ISPs ranges) and what probably should not be.

    Note that geolocation is error prone, eventually you will find incorrect data.
