Deprecate and remove geo_ip2 feature
rikatz opened this issue · 11 comments
GeoIP feature is used to control access to the environment per location/region. While this is a useful feature, we understand that this control should not be made on ingress-nginx.
Additionally, it is not an open feature that can be consumed by anyone and instead needs a license and a third party module.
So the proposal is to remove and deprecate this feature

Some issues in github seemed to hint at users using geoip2 to ascertain SRC ip (or I could be confused so just commenting)
