yeah its chrome Version 54.0.2840.98 (64-bit) on osx
Im sorry but setting up a cronjob to download maxmind + include jars into project seems easier and faster than incorporating a third party web service.
edit: about speed, since you call such a database yourself most likely, you are not gonna be faster than local lookup
This comment reminds me of the response Dropbox received when being introduced to ycombinator.
"...you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem."
Cool thanks - I'll look into what might be causing the back button behavior.

Sure, if you've got the required sysadmin and dev skills, and a server to host the file. Not everyone does.
We also return additional data beyond geolocation, such as the ASN and hostname, and have additional optional fields such as company name and domain, and carrier details. You could download multiple databases and do it locally, but it's even more effort.

Oh sure - it's not quicker than a local lookup - it's quicker than _other_ IP geolocation APIs.
