IQ tests are a western concept to fit a western education system and f******g ridiculous, this has been proven.
Use openvpn on tcp/443 for now, and start preparing+testing a couple of backup methods on different IPs from a distinct netblock.
It's always a race.
The tests you refer to, yes, that is half pseudo science mostly and cultural influenced, you already see that with generations of emigrants having lower scores.
Selection bias as well, eg. universities executing studies being in more rich areas which generally have higher intelligence levels after 2-3 generations (the "education funding gap" in the first 1-2 needs to be ignored and is usually by age not much present, median age of uni studies goes down by recruiting locally or, hold on, in the university directly...) in the west while east/asia are not as oriented and some excellent universities are based in the middle of nowhere (...India, China...).
A sort of "IQ" in general can be measured either by a very specialised testing on a specific task or problem related to the use of the IQ (eg. work) but single person is not really helpful for anything other than some mostly useless tables in books; you need to do this on a regional or country base and then compare internationally with a formula taking other things into account, which is more something the UN would do (but no $$$ and no one cares). Regionally this is done in some countries, but usually way smaller than the US (city states and eg. Belgium or NL).
