alt Hacker NewsYes but it’s not cheap. Maxmind and ipinfo etc sell a tier that tells you this information, then you can 403 based on it. But the price is nuts like $40,000 a year.

I work for IPinfo. We offer IPinfo Lite for free. With a little bit of time in identifying the ASNs, you can implement a decent way to block a good number of bots fairly easily using the free data alone.

You don't need to spend anywhere near $40k a year to get that info... You don't even need to spend $1

Focsec.com IP database for offline use (datacenters, VPNs, proxies, bots) runs around $1k/month for internal-only use.
Open source works just fine for this - take a look at geoacumen-country
