As a counterpoint, I see geo-blocking as a good way to filter out the fully-automated trash attacks. Traffic from countries where you don't do business is rarely legitimate. Analyzing and responding to it is a waste of time. Block it and you cut down a lot of noise so you can focus more on serious threats.

Sure, it won't protect against a determined human, but it gives you a higher chance of noticing that human.
