MaxMind (a great product)
I've heard anecdotal accounts of MaxMind intentionally marking all address blocks assigned to a VPN vendor as "open proxy" even when advised repeatedly that the disputed addresses (a) had no VPN services running on them either inbound or outbound, and (b) in fact were web servers for the company's payment system, or mail servers for their corporate email.
I would wonder if these apps didn't have issues that allowed web proxy to the world. Maybe MaxMind is doing something wrong or maybe they're seeing the result of malicious activities and classifying from that.
That was not the conclusion that one would draw from their replies. -r
