If you are looking for accurate geolocation, without "fibbing", why not
purchase a service like:
https://yandex.com/maps-api/products/locator
[maybe there are others?]
which uses Wifi and cell tower triangulation?
No idea how accurate it is - have never tried it.
Not a recommendation for use - just posting another possible avenue for
geolocation.

Hi Ben,
I too would like to see this. Everybody knows IP geolocation is not a trivial
task and is rife with inaccuracies. If such a presentation were made, it would
allow us poor operators a valuable insight into the minefield which is
geolocation and might even help some of us avoid some of the more common
pitfalls.
Just food for thought...
Regards,
Michael
