User reviews
Excellent. I just hope this 'Capture The Flag' (CTF) extension will update its location database, as Flagfox does.
Speaking of Flagfox, a reviewer on the extension's AMO page complained that "It doesn't show the hosting provider, just the ISP. E.g. the webservers for invidious.snopyta.org are in Finland even though Hetzner Online GmbH is Germany-based, and the extension shows a German IP address."
Well, CTF does it : ISP location and Country of Registration, when distinct.
Setting a country's flag as an extension's toolbar button on a 16px grid is hard to see, especially for little known countries. Why not replace the flag with the country's code?
Best extension I know for discovering a page's ISP and registration. It does only that but does it well.
