I agree that IP geolocation is a good approximation. It is never accurate up to street level.

Meanwhile, there is API to detect VPN, so that we can aware that the geolocation is good up to the server physical location.

We're working on creating our own offering on this. We'll have Tor Exit node detection first and are planning to make that generally available to all our users within the week at no extra cost.
