Have you thought about adding support for something like IPStack in addition to the MaxMind DBs? I'm not opposed to sponsoring that development if this is interesting to you.

Hi @jacobhaug 👋

There is a Go implementation for the ipstack API: https://github.com/go-apilayer/ipstack But implementing this would require substantial changes to the echoip project.

First and foremost having a remote data source. I'd give it a go, if @mpolden agrees that this would be a feature they'd like to maintain.
