What ipinfo bot does
An IP address on its own means nothing until you look it up. This bot turns it into the practical facts: which country and city the address is registered in, which network it belongs to, and which provider or hosting company runs that network.
Two everyday uses. One is checking a server: whether a host is where you think it is, or whether a service moved to a different provider. The other is reading a log line - an unfamiliar address in an access log is much less alarming once you see it belongs to a search engine crawler rather than to a data centre you have never heard of.
City-level accuracy is approximate for consumer connections, and an address behind a VPN tells you about the VPN, not about the person.

FAQ
Can I find a person by their IP?
No. Public data goes as far as the provider and an approximate city; anything beyond that is with the provider and requires a legal request.
Why does the city look wrong?
Geolocation databases map network blocks, not devices, so a provider's block can be registered in a different city than the customer.
