Geobytes is a global company specializing in geolocation and anti-spam software. Geobytes was incorporated in the State of Delaware, USA in 1999 making it one of the oldest companies in the online geolocation industry. == Notoriety == Geobytes was one of the first companies to build a global IP address location database by overlaying geographic user data on to a map of the internet's infrastructure.〔((WO/2001/057696) METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFYING LOCALE OF INTERNET USERS )〕 This enabled one of the key differentiating features of Geobytes' IP location technology in that it facilitated a shift of focus from the physical location of the Internet’s devices to the geographic ‘service area’ of those devices Consequently, Geobytes has played a significant role in shaping the Internet in terms of its anonymity and with regards to regulatory compliance and the jurisdiction of governments over online content. Its technology has been cited in numerous government and legal documents as ‘evidence’ that ‘Geolocation’ of the Internet is possible.〔(Canadian 37th PARLIAMENT, 1st SESSION June 11, 2002 )〕 In addition to commercial applications, Geobytes’ technology has also been used in both civil and criminal court proceedings, in law enforcement, and in the location of missing persons.〔(Nancy Glass Snyder v Dolphin Encounters Limited )〕〔(Whenu.com, Inc. vs. The State Of Utah )〕〔(Federal Communications Commission )〕 Geobytes is widely referenced – According to Google webmaster tools, as of the July 4, 2007 there were 24405 external links to Geobytes web site. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Geobytes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
