Country
South Africa
Address space that resolves to South Africa, and who operates it.
Where the space resolves, which is an estimate for the block, not a fix on any device. A network can hold space in many countries at once, so the same space is counted on more than one country page.
What this tells you
- 870 networks hold address space located in South Africa, run by 113 operators we can group by name.
- An estimated 38,130,860 people browse from South Africa, over a 60 day window. Counted where the users are, whatever registry the network they use belongs to.
- The largest operator we can identify by name here is Dimension Data, holding 13% of the IPv4 space.
- VPN exit infrastructure here belongs to Apple Private Relay, ProtonVPN, TunnelBear and 15 other providers. An address in South Africa is not necessarily a person in South Africa.
