whois is so deprecated.

We have country level breakdown for ASNs.

  - https://ipinfo.io/AS214822#geolocation

We have some IP range breakdown as well:

  - https://ipinfo.io/AS214822/45.8.228.0/24
  - https://ipinfo.io/ips/45.8.228.0/24

We have the data. How would you like us to present it? (Bonus point if you can tell me why that will be helpful because that will help me to make a better pitch to engineering!)

How do you deal with anycast?

		Check out an anycast IP directly: https://ipinfo.io/1.1.1.1 We show locations hints for anycast IPs.

WHOIS has been replaced by RDAP which offers the same information through a different protocol. Each RIR also has its own lookup tool.

While I suspect it's not quite what you meant, yes, whois is deprecated and is on its way out:
