It appears the resource at freegeoip.net has been taken down by the author. It may be time to add a more reliable geolocation option, perhaps one with an API you can subscribe to for volume-heavy work.

An alternative to freegeoip.net was spun up in its place at freegeoip.io, but it's not certain how long that will stay available.

Thanks for letting us know. There is an alternative that can be subscribed
to, telize, and I plan to add support for Maxminds API. I'll look into
freegeoip.io.
