Not a bug IP address country info displayed for users within XenForo does not match the IP address country info XenForo links to a majority of the time

Affected version

2.3.4

I just went through the latest 20 member signups and looked at the IP address and country info stored within XenForo. For those members most of the countries displayed within XenForo were not the countries actually shown when clicking the IP address link for additional details.

I would say out of about 25 IP addresses I clicked the link on, 15 showed a different country than what was displayed within XenForo.

I assume XenForo must not be getting its country information from the same place its linking to (https://whatismyipaddress.com/). I could see being off once in awhile but something must be wrong with such a high percentage showing conflicting country information.

XenForo doesn't show or store geo location information anywhere. This may be coming from an add-on you have installed.
