# Upcoming improvements to user count data

_October 9, 2024_

On Tuesday, October 22, 2024, we will release an improvement to our user count
data to better detect IPs with multiple end users.

Many IP addresses with multiple end users that previously had a user count value
of 0 or 1 will now have a value of 2.

If you have applications of the data that rely on user count values with a
threshold of 0, 1, or 2, you may want to increase the thresholds by 1. For
example, if you currently consider user count values of greater than 1 to be
high volume, you may wish to consider user count values of greater than 2 to be
high volume when this update goes live.

The following services will be impacted:

- GeoIP Insights web service
