Maxmind would have to violate ARIN's rules to collect your geoip information through a feed of whois data. Those rules forbid republication of the data. Try contacting them directly. Then download the files they publish and check for yourself. https://support.maxmind.com/geoip-data-correction-request/ http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/legacy/geolite/ When you've done these things and still haven't gotten satisfaction, perhaps then it's time to return here for a session of Name and Shame.
