Country Flags & IP Whois Extension

A browser extension to display the page's server flag in the toolbar area indicating the current webserver's physical location. This is done by comparing the IP range with an offline database from MaxMind's GeoLite (there is no server interaction to get the info). Knowing the server location adds an extra layer of awareness to your browsing and is useful to indicate the native languages and legal jurisdictions that may apply. Additional information about Geolocation or Whois info can be obtained via the left- and right-click on the action icon.

5. Supports running a custom command when an IP is resolved; This command accepts [ip], [host], [curl], [enurl] and [url] keywords
6. Open requested service optionally in the background and/or adjacent to the current tab.

John (ID: 000000caf5443d2a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/09/2022 This is closest to the legendary "Flagfox" add-on. I love that I can create custom right click flag options just like Flagfox! I have not found any other Chrome add-on that comes any closer. 5 Starz!
