Interesting. Why not offer the db as files to download for faster local lookup though? That's what geoip databases do (for a price).

firehol seems to be unmaintained, running on auto, see my other post. However just google 'firehol', and you can download the lists.

(Such lists are trivial to use with ipset + linux, for example.)

As someone else pointed out, yeah its free to download anyway.
