Fantastic, solves the issue of bots from foreign adversaries. Everyone complaining doesn't seem to get it, it doesn't need to solve all usecases, but solving this one usecase is great.

Conversely, can this be used to show that someone is NOT a chinese/russian bot? I've had enough with people accusing me lol.

Yesterday I fought off someone/something doing Chinese language crypto-blogspam on my website. Ip-addresses were all unique (mixed ipv4&ipv6), but all were 'located' within 100km of my server in central Europe.

If crypto-scammers can bypass geo-restrictions for blogspam, I'm confident that state-level actors can do that even better for geopolitics.

Did you read the article? It's not about using IP addresses...

  right - it's about using latency to the requester.
  ...which is what fails via 100 methods. I personally can't believe this is omitting addressing the things that would basically ruin this.
