Latency does not match Location

I recently noticed faster-than-speed-of-light connections to nodes in US:

dataset bundled with ipfs-geoip is out of date

I was not sure if we implemented FTL transport in libp2p (yet), so my second guess was that geoip database is out of date, and a manual check using https://www.maxmind.com/en/geoip-demo?pkit_lang=en confirmed the IP is now assigned to Germany (which explains low ping):

I believe this should be addressed upstream (see my notes in both):

• update geoip dataset: Update the dataset ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-geoip#63
• add IPv6 support: Add IPv6 support ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-geoip#60

Upstream fix being prepared in ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-geoip#80
