Future of the hosted version

[espen]

Just wondering what will happen to https://freegeoip.net when it is being taken over by @apilayer. Free version? Paid plans?

Regardless, great to see the project being continued :)

Hi Espen,

Thanks for getting in touch. For now we week the project running as-is, and will announce some more detailed plans for the future within the next 2-3 weeks.

We'll keep you posted here :)

Ok cool, you don't support https in the free plan and one has to add the ip manually to the request.

Thanks for the update @julian-zehetmayr.

For all those sad to see things like HTTPS go away, I've setup
https://freegeoip.app
to continue the spirit of this project.

• HTTPS (no HTTP, sorry - it's 2018)
• Rate limit of 15000/hour as before for FREE, guaranteed
• No logs, no analytics - privacy alway in mind
• Continued development for features like bulk lookup and other data sources

Also, why would you put the access key as a GET parameter?
