Identifying API Keys with Traffic from Unsupported Regions

It seems if you want to continue, you might need your backend session to constantly be asking “geolocate my IP” to some service (hopefully with the same data as OpenAI) before sending API calls to OpenAI to protect yourself and deny some hosting locations.

Thanks for your answer.

Yes, we whitelist traffic to entire app already.

This is the reply from openai customer support, which seems to be not very helpful :slight_smile - i do hope the customer support could be a bit more professional:

Anyways, we made changes, but just don’t know if the changes work… We’ll wait and see if our account gets suspended after July 9.

We’ll continue monitoring all traffic from our end.
