Anti-VPN

AntiVPN protects your Minecraft server from players connecting through VPNs, proxies, Tor exit nodes, and optionally hosting or datacenter networks.

Connections are checked asynchronously during pre-login, preventing risky players from fully joining without blocking the server thread. Results are cached to reduce API usage and improve performance.
