事件经过：Cloud Innovation 呼吁清算这家已失败的注册机构
Cloud Innovation Ltd 已正式呼吁解散非洲网络信息中心（AFRINIC）。AFRINIC 是负责管理非洲 54 个国家 IP 地址资源的区域互联网注册机构（RIR）。Cloud Innovation 持有超过六百万个 IPv4 地址，是 AFRINIC 在地址分配方面最大的成员之一。
在一份公开声明中，Cloud Innovation 表示 AFRINIC 已变得不可救药，并列举了多年来的制度失败、董事会功能失调以及选举违规行为。该公司表示，尽管自 2019 年以来投入了法律、财务和组织资源以支持改革努力，但“每一次尝试都失败了”。 另见: AfriNIC会员名册神秘消失.
自 2022 年以来，AFRINIC 一直没有合法的董事会。2025 年 6 月，在法院的监督下，AFRINIC 举行了三年来的首次选举——但由于代理投票争议和涉嫌程序违规，选举结果被宣告无效。作为支持举行此次选举的关键方，Cloud Innovation 称这一无效宣告对治理是“毁灭性的”，因为这证明了“任何未来的选举都无法被视为最终结果”。 另见: AfriNIC 消失的成员登记册.
随后不久，ICANN 发出公开信，警告 AFRINIC 的持续功能失调可能导致其失去作为 RIR 的承认。ICANN 首席执行官 Kurt Lindqvist 对 AFRINIC 中立、透明运作的能力表示“深切担忧”，并列举了代理投票滥用、品牌误用以及未经授权访问会员数据等问题。号码资源组织（NRO）也呼应了这一立场，表示 AFRINIC 必须履行其对全球互联网社群的责任，否则将面临被撤销承认的风险。

为何重要
AFRINIC 的崩溃威胁到整个非洲的互联网基础设施。作为负责分配 IP 地址和 ASN 号码的机构，AFRINIC 在宽带发展、ISP 运营和网络治理中发挥着关键作用。如果没有一个正常运作的注册机构，新的地址分配可能会冻结，转移会被停止，基础设施部署也会延迟。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·费尔南德斯.
Cloud Innovation 强调，现在的问题不再是改革，而是替代。它现在主张在法院监督下解散 AFRINIC，并通过 ICANN 的 ICP-2 流程将其运营责任移交给另一个现有的 RIR。ICP-2 框架概述了如何选择和承认一个新的或替代的 RIR。根据 Cloud Innovation 的说法，这是避免整个非洲大陆互联网资源管理陷入混乱和无序崩溃的唯一途径。 另见: 阿尔多·加西亚.
该公司提议，由 ICANN 和 NRO 指定一个有能力且中立的 RIR——例如 RIPE NCC 或 ARIN——来临时或永久地管理非洲资源。这将确保服务连续性，保护非洲利益相关者，并为社群探索可能的“AFRINIC 2.0”（具备更强保障和国际监督）争取时间。 另见: Alcymer Vieira.
尽管批评者对非非洲注册机构监管非洲地址表示担忧，但 Cloud Innovation 反驳称，AFRINIC 本身就是通过 ICP-2 从 RIPE NCC 和 ARIN 的区域部分创建的，重新接受此类监管并非没有先例。它还指出，替代 RIR 应保障非洲在其政策流程和技术服务中的代表性。 另见: 阿尔西德斯·克雷莫内齐.
Cloud Innovation 已向毛里求斯法院提交了法律请愿，以启动清算程序。它承诺与 ICANN、NRO 以及临时注册机构全面合作，确保不让任何非洲运营商掉队。该公司将其行为定性为保护性的，而非破坏性的——是确保信任、稳定和未来增长的必要步骤。 另见: 阿尔贝托·安纳亚.
在全球互联网社群审议这一提议之际，此案凸显了一个令人不安的现实：当问责制失灵时，即使是像 RIR 这样的基石机构，也可能会——而且有时必须——被取代。 另见: 阿尔伯特·基斯.
