Country not blocked #139

Closed imchivaa closed 4 years ago

imchivaa commented 5 years ago

Hi,

First of all, thanks for creating and mainting this package. I have a problem when enabling country blocking.

It's fine when i block country:my since i am from malaysia. This prevent me from accessing the routes (403). But when i block example: country:ca, and i use vpn like tunnel bear to canada and access my site, it's accessible.

Not only canada, i tried few different countries and other vpn as well. The results are the same, can explain if i missed out anything or any steps?

Thank you.

You are probably using geoip or geoip2 to detect the country, so maybe it's not working because it doesn't support VPN? Or the VPN you are using is not doing a very good making you look like you are not in your country anymore?
