Comment:

 > Note: After careful consideration, taking into account customer
 feedback, we have decided against removing latitude and longitude
 coordinates from the GeoLite2 databases.* We are in the process of
 reviewing coordinates used in all of our GeoLite2 and GeoIP databases to
 ensure there is no risk of misuse.
