i like B) , but wonder if this is leaving pbbans open to legal action should a hacker be tracked and threatened in some way.

Public Domain information - plus the accuracy of the information is usually off by varying degrees - has my place at least 100kms from where I actually am. Searching some IP's I am familiar with has them hundreds of K's from where the actually are.

Google themselves have a disclaimer

I doubt very much that a lawyer would be interested in PBBans displaying a map. Duty of care would be extremely hard pushed to prove as far as PBBans is concerned when the IP and map themselves are obtainable from a variety of other sources.

its a good idea

i like it

cos the amount of ppl that say oh no it wasnt me hacking it was someone using my name

well if the map shows its from that persons area at least it stops then saying its someone else with a keygen somewhere else in the world

It's kinda like Megan's law maps where you can see where all the sex offenders are....it lets you see where all the cheaters in the neighborhood are lol...

Well, the maps are probably pretty similar :P

Is there any way to remove it for an individual's account?... Namely mine, I don't really need to know where they are located.
