Extension Usage Instructions

                        ✨ If you want to see a precise location for a website — country, city, state — displayed with a pixel-perfect country flag icon, try this one!

📝 Extension shows a country flag for the site opened in the current tab.
It also indicates the precise IP address, city, region, and country name in the icon hint and in the popup.

📍 Precision is achieved with Google's free DNS-over-HTTPS service.
Country, city, region and post code data is served by the backend that I run at 🔐 https://geoip.furman.im.

🥬 GeoLite2 database created by MaxMind available from maxmind.com is updated twice a week – on Tuesdays and Fridays, so backend always returns fresh locations.

💻 Geographical data is cached locally for a week, so minimal additional requests are made. You can always refresh the data in the popup.

🙅‍♀️ Extension does not collect any user data, nor does it track or identify users in any way. And never will. The same applies to the backend service.

🚩 Extension uses excellent "Flags of the World" icons by Mark James (of famfamfam.com fame). Flags are ISO 3166 compliant, so please let me know if some country has the wrong flag displayed.
