  • AFRINIC 在2025年选举中禁止代理投票的举措凸显了对其选举过程诚信和透明度的日益担忧。
  • Cloud Innovation 呼吁重置 AFRINIC 的治理,并支持转向新的区域互联网注册机构(RIR),以保障非洲的数字未来。

AFRINIC 代理投票禁令的影响

非洲网络信息中心(AFRINIC)最近宣布了一项有争议的决定,即在2025年选举中禁止代理投票。这一禁令直接影响到许多成员的投票权,进一步加深了该组织内部的治理危机。AFRINIC 的领导层因处理以往选举的方式已备受关注,现在又因强加一项被许多人视为不可行的选举标准而遭到强烈反对。这项禁令被视为 AFRINIC 多年存在缺陷的治理实践的延续,侵蚀了其成员和区域利益相关者之间的信任。

考虑到 AFRINIC 在选举过程中持续存在的问题,禁止代理投票的决定尤其令人担忧。过去,选举一直饱受争议,最近一次是2025年6月23日的选举因一个未经核实的代理争议而被宣布无效。这引发了人们对该组织举行自由公正选举能力的质疑。代理投票禁令进一步加剧了这些担忧,使许多人质疑 AFRINIC 是否仍值得信赖来管理非洲关键的 IP 资源。 另见: ZION-AS Zion Boetzel.

Kurt Lindqvist 的角色与 ICANN 的影响

ICANN 的首席执行官 Kurt Lindqvist 一直处于围绕 AFRINIC 治理争议的中心。尽管互联网治理社区中的许多人将 ICANN 视为一个中立机构,但 Lindqvist 的行动引发了强烈的反弹。Lindqvist 正在推动 AFRINIC 运营的更广泛变革,特别是通过 ICP-2 合规文件,这将赋予 ICANN 对区域互联网注册机构(RIR)前所未有的权力,包括撤销其认可的权力。

Lindqvist 发布了一份与 ICP-2 相关的新文件,绕过了 ICANN 通常的多利益相关方流程,批评者认为这是一次悄无声息的权力争夺。通过推动一个可能使 ICANN 控制非洲区域互联网治理的机制,Lindqvist 的行动被广泛视为对区域自治的直接挑战。他破坏非洲自下而上互联网治理的努力被视为扩大 ICANN 影响范围并对关键数字资源施加控制的更广泛战略的一部分,绕过了长期以来被视为区域自决所必需的传统治理结构。 另见: William-Marie DESPORTES.

对于 AFRINIC 的第三大成员Cloud Innovation Ltd.来说,AFRINIC 治理的失败(以最近的代理投票禁令为例)进一步证明了他们呼吁解散 AFRINIC 的合理性。他们认为,ICANN 的干预,特别是考虑到 Lindqvist 的行动,只会凸显出完全重置该组织治理结构的必要性。Cloud Innovation 支持启动 ICP-2 流程,由一个现有的 RIR(如 RIPE、ARIN 或 APNIC)接管 AFRINIC 的职责,从而确保非洲 IP 资源的管理更加稳定和透明。

治理重置的必要性

对 AFRINIC 治理日益增长的不满导致了要求其解散的呼声。作为关键利益相关者,Cloud Innovation 倡导转向一个优先考虑非洲数字主权的新的、更可靠的治理结构。代理投票禁令,加上 AFRINIC 无法举行公正民主的选举,已经造成了一场需要立即关注的治理危机。通过支持 ICANN 撤销对 AFRINIC 认可的举措,Cloud Innovation 寻求确保非洲的互联网治理重回正轨,并任命一个可靠且负责的继任者。 另见: AfriNIC会员名册神秘消失.

这场危机引发了关于区域互联网治理未来的更广泛问题。非洲能否继续依赖一个失败的注册机构,还是时候实施重置,确保非洲的数字基础设施和 IP 资源得到有效和自主的管理? 另见: AfriNIC 消失的成员登记册.
