Although not 100% accurate, the IP-to-Country is about 98% accurate on country recognition.
The main reasons for this lie in the existence of dynamic IP addresses and Internet
access through proxy servers. Also, it should be noted that the IP-to-Country seeks
to indicate the country where resources were first allocated or assigned and are
not an authoritative statement of the location in which any specific resource may
currently be in use. These cases are very difficult and sometimes impossible to
map. However at this moment the IP-to-Country is by far the most accurate way to
determine the location of Internet users in real-time.
