Data sources

IP0 data sources: DB-IP, proxycheck, Tor CollecTor, and Feodo

IP0 puts observations from several public sources into one report and keeps the source name, record time, and query status visible. A planned source is not a promise that every report will return successfully.

Honest report states

  • Each report distinguishes successful, failed, timed-out, unconfigured, and uncovered sources.
  • When sources disagree, the report keeps the difference and explains its coverage instead of forcing one answer.
  • A source plan and the IP0 query time are separate. If an upstream record time is missing, it is shown as “not provided by source”.
