Zusammenfassung:	In an example embodiment, there is described herein a location based detection technique that determines whether multiple requests from different addresses, such as a Layer 2 MAC (Media Access Control) address and/or layer 3 IP (Internet Protocol) address are being sent form a single device. In particular embodiments, if the device sends more than a predefined threshold number of requests, those requests can be ignored and/or denied.
