IPure IP purity check

IP purity report

162.158.94.21

25/ 100

High risk

confidence: high

Most platforms will add verification or block outright; consider replacing it.

Based on signals observed from public and partner data sources at 2026-10-15 05:43 UTC. This describes IP-level risk only; platforms' internal risk data is not visible to us.

Suitability

What it is good for

Each use case weighs the evidence differently; these are not one overall score.

AI services

ChatGPT · Claude · Gemini

35

Not recommended

Main issue: Proxy IP

Least tolerant of data center and proxy exits: more likely to get degraded service, verification prompts or account limits. Spam history does not matter here

Social sign-up

X · Discord · Telegram · Reddit

34

Not recommended

Main issue: Proxy IP

Sign-up is the strictest checkpoint: data center / proxy exits are more likely to be asked for phone verification or refused, and IPs with bulk-registration history are blocked far more often

Streaming / short video

TikTok · Netflix · YouTube

24

Best avoided

Main issue: Broadcast IP

Native IP and low sharing matter most: a broadcast IP reads as a region mismatch, and shared exits get throttled

Gaming platforms

Steam · PSN · Epic · Nintendo

26

Not recommended

Main issue: Proxy IP

Region locks, regional pricing and gifting all follow the IP's location, so broadcast IPs tend to be treated as cross-region; data center exits carry a high risk of restrictions

Cross-border e-commerce

Amazon · eBay · Shopee

32

Not recommended

Main issue: Blocklist hit: Spamhaus ZEN

Linked-account store closures are driven first by shared IPs, and only then by data center ranges

Email sending

SMTP · marketing email

0

Best avoided

Main issue: Blocklist hit: Spamhaus ZEN

Blocklists make or break deliverability, while sending from a data center IP is normal and is not penalised

Evidence

Why it got this score

  • −45

    Blocklist hit: Spamhaus ZEN

    PBL — range judged dynamic by Spamhaus; XBL — compromised host / open proxy

    What it means
    A Spamhaus listing means this IP was confirmed sending spam, or the machine is compromised and being used as a relay.
    Which uses care
    Cares most: Email sending; Barely looks at it: AI services, Social sign-up, Streaming / short video, Gaming platforms
    Why it is weighted this way
    This is behavioural evidence, not a profile guess, so it is a hard cap and fatal for email. It carries little weight for scenarios that ignore mail reputation, such as AI services.
    Can it be fixed
    Fix the cause first (shut down the compromised service, remove malware), then request removal from Spamhaus; usually resolved within days.
  • −15

    Proxy IP

    Only 1 data source flags it as a proxy; the evidence is limited, so it counts at half weight

    What it means
    A source marks this address as a proxy exit without saying whether it is a VPN, a datacenter proxy or something else.
    Which uses care
    Cares most: AI services, Social sign-up, Streaming / short video, Gaming platforms, Cross-border e-commerce
    Why it is weighted this way
    Only one source says so, so it counts at half weight.
    Can it be fixed
    These labels are usually applied to whole ranges and are hard to clear by behaviour; moving to an unlabeled range is the practical fix.
  • −15

    Broadcast IP

    Range registered in US but used in DE (announced across borders)

    What it means
    The country the range is registered in differs from where it is actually used. Common when an international host uses a range registered in country A inside country B, or when a proxy vendor leases ranges.
    Which uses care
    Cares most: Streaming / short video, Gaming platforms; Barely looks at it: Email sending
    Why it is weighted this way
    Region-sensitive platforms (streaming, region-locked gaming) care most: they cross-check several geo databases and treat a mismatch as "wrong region". Little effect on scenarios that ignore region.
    Can it be fixed
    This is a registration attribute of the range and cannot be changed by the user. Platforms use different geo databases, so some may not notice at all.
  • −10

    CDN / relay node

    Belongs to a CDN edge or a privacy relay; some risk systems apply extra scrutiny

    What it means
    This is a CDN edge or a privacy relay (such as iCloud Private Relay); requests pass through it.
    Which uses care
    Cares most: AI services, Social sign-up, Streaming / short video, Gaming platforms, Cross-border e-commerce
    Why it is weighted this way
    Most users behind relays are real people, so risk systems do not treat them like VPNs; only a light deduction.
    Can it be fixed
    An inherent attribute of the IP or its range; nothing a user can change short of a different IP.
  • −5

    No rDNS record

    No PTR record; IPs allocated by established carriers usually have one

    What it means
    This IP has no reverse hostname (PTR record). Addresses allocated by established carriers usually have one.
    Which uses care
    Cares most: Email sending
    Why it is weighted this way
    A few points only: a missing PTR is a weak "unknown origin" signal, not a stain. Email cares more, since receiving servers check it.
    Can it be fixed
    Most hosts let you set a PTR in the control panel; set it to a sensible hostname.
  • −3

    IP type: Business broadband

    Business broadband is broadly trusted, though a small share are proxy exits

    What it means
    A business broadband address: generally trusted, though some corporate exits are used as proxies.
    Which uses care
    Cares most: AI services, Social sign-up, Gaming platforms, Cross-border e-commerce; Barely looks at it: Email sending
    Why it is weighted this way
    A small deduction meaning "slightly less certain than residential".
    Can it be fixed
    An inherent attribute of the IP or its range; nothing a user can change short of a different IP.
  • +3

    No open ports

    Network scans have not observed any open service on this IP

    What it means
    Network scanners have not observed any open service on this IP.
    Which uses care
    Barely looks at it: AI services
    Why it is weighted this way
    A small bonus: a small attack surface means fewer chances of ending up in scanner and abuse databases. Not evidence of home broadband; a well-firewalled server looks the same.
    Can it be fixed
    An inherent attribute of the IP or its range; nothing a user can change short of a different IP.
  • +15

    Whitelisted IP

    Listed as an official address of a well-known service or crawler

    What it means
    This address is listed as the official IP of a well-known service or search engine.
    Which uses care
    All six uses treat it about the same, at the same weight as the overall score.
    Why it is weighted this way
    A bonus, and it also means this is nobody's egress, so scenario assessment does not apply.
    Can it be fixed
    An inherent attribute of the IP or its range; nothing a user can change short of a different IP.

Limits

What an IP check cannot tell you

Each platform's internal risk labels
Platforms keep their own IP reputation data and ban records and do not publish them. No hit in public sources does not mean a platform has nothing on this IP.
Whether the IP is truly exclusive
Sharing is only the number of devices observed in the same subnet. It cannot show who else is using this exit right now, or what they are doing.
Which accounts this IP has been tied to
Account-to-IP links exist only inside each platform. Accounts previously banned on this IP are invisible to us.
Device, browser and behaviour
Risk systems look at IP + device fingerprint + behavioural rhythm together. A clean IP with an odd fingerprint or behaviour still gets blocked.
Whether the account profile matches the IP
When sign-up country, phone number, payment method, language or time zone disagree with the IP's location, platforms verify further. That is unrelated to IP purity.
