Geo Blocking with GeoIP on Apache (Debian)
Aus Matts Wiki
This article holds my notes on how to implement geo blocking on Apache web server.
It is based on mod_geoip module which itself is based on GeoIP database from Maxmind.
According to Maxmind the GeoIP database format was retired in May 2022: https://github.com/maxmind/geoip-api-mod_geoip2
Maxmind recommends to switch to GeoIP2 database format, which can be accessed with Maxmind's own mod_maxminddb module according to: https://github.com/maxmind/mod_maxminddb
