PhoneBoy Speaks Ep 1097: IP Mapping Hell
Databases that map IP addresses to physical locations exist, but they were meant for providing a general idea where the IP is, not a specific location. Sadly some people have used these databases to find people at exact locations, with inaccurate results and a bit of annoyance for the people who happen to live in the chosen location.
