Add spur data next to IP in the checkuser result page
Open, Needs TriagePublicFeature

Description

Currently, if a user has been already blocked, in the checkuser results page, you see in parenthesis "(Already blocked)" or something like that. It would be quite nice if it could show spur data on IPs of users too so I wouldn't need to load the ip info for each one separately.

Which attributes of the data would you want to see?

It would be quite nice if it could show spur data on IPs of users too so I wouldn't need to load the ip info for each one separately.

Which attributes of the data would you want to see?

For example, if it's a residential proxy, put it in parenthesis next to the IP. For now, I don't think it's that important to know which provider but maybe that'd be useful too.

We don't currently fetch the information in that format (e.g. "is residential proxy"), see https://docs.spur.us/feeds/types#the-ip-context-object for what we could add. It does look like we could consume the "Tag metadata" feed, though https://docs.spur.us/feeds/types#the-tag-metadata-object
