Verdict for 104.28.166.49

Location agreement What each geolocation database says

The databases disagree on the country — this IP's location is genuinely ambiguous, so treat the verdict with a little caution.

Geolocation data from DB-IP, IPinfo and MaxMind.

Rank on this site compared only with IPs checked here, not the whole internet

16,945 IPs were checked here in the last 90 days; 3% of them score lower than this one. The 8,964 IPs classified as Datacenter IP average 63; this one is 28 lower.

Rule baseline Computed from our own rules, not an industry average

An IP that only loses its type points scores 75 (this one is classified as Datacenter IP). Yours is 40 lower; the gap comes from the deductions listed below.

Score deductions What was deducted, why, and which source said so

• Datacenter IP−25
  Datacenter IPs get challenged more often by AI platforms  from ipapi.is、ipapi.is（company.type / asn.type）
• Proxy flagged by only one scoring source−10
  Only one scoring source flags this as a proxy  from proxycheck
• Blocklists−30
  Listed on a public blocklist  from UCEPROTECT L1、DroneBL、s5h

Line and geolocation consistency does not reduce purity

• Broadcast IPRange registered in United States, IP located in Hong Kong, different (broadcast IP)

These two affect region checks only; they do not reduce purity.

AI platforms by the regions OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Meta each list (Muse: the known US and Canada launch)

This page judges the queried IP by its region and network type; it does not measure the exit you use when visiting the platform. The home page checks the diagnostic request exit and response for some platforms. Account sign-in, chat and API inference are not verified.

MuseDependsMuse is confirmed open in the US and Canada; there is no evidence Hong Kong is open, and signing up from there is likely to land on the waitlist

GeminiWorks, but gets challengedRegion supported; a datacenter IP works but gets verification prompts and risk checks more often

Gemini APINot suitableHong Kong is not on Google’s list for the Gemini API / AI Studio (the web app has its own list)

Evidence

• proxycheckproxycheck flags this IP as a proxy, but the main source is unavailable and no second source agrees: treated as a single-source clue only; the type still follows the line itself
• proxycheckSays “VPN / hosting” (second opinion: can confirm a proxy flag, and types the IP when the main source is unavailable)
• ipapi.isOperator type: hosting / cloud (Cloudflare, Inc.)
• ipapi.isASN type: hosting / cloud
• ipapi.isIn a datacenter range: cloudflare.com
• ipapi.isOnly one scoring source flags this IP as a proxy; display-only sources such as IPLocate are not counted. The type follows the line itself
• Reverse DNSNo reverse DNS for this IP (not counted against it)
• Reverse DNSSampled 32 addresses in the same /24: 0 have reverse DNS
• RDAP registryNetwork CLOUDFLARENET, registrant Cloudflare, Inc.
• RDAP registryRegistry data mentions “CLOUD”, pointing to a datacenter / IDC
• PeeringDBThe network registers itself as content / cloud (reference only)
