GeoIP update Locked behind active contract

I have multiple devices with varying levels of active support, and the inability to unlock the geoIP database is quite inconvenient. There is no method for manual updates, and using external filtering can consume significant memory resources when attempting to restrict access from a large geographical region.

I understand the rationale behind conditioning support and updates to the greatest extent possible. Even "evil" major manufacturers like HP, Dell, and Lenovo provide publicly accessible BIOS and firmware updates for older hardware in response to critical security vulnerabilities, while placing non-critical updates behind a paywall. Their objective is to prevent the proliferation of insecure devices under their brand.
