Once again we can use whois to query information about these ASN. You just need to put AS in front of the number when asking.
There is way more output, try for yourself:
$ whois as198121 | grep country
country: CZ
Ah, good - EU! Not so fast… Note that the second to last AS is always the same.
$ whois as60068 | grep country
country: GB
Last time I checked GB was not part of the EU. And it’s also a member of FIVE eyes.
So we have a service sponsored by EU, to protect the privacy of EU citizens using mainly non-EU services and routing all of their traffic, at least for the sample I took, via an non-EU provider.
