- Cloud Innovation 声称 AFRINIC 的治理已经不可挽回地破裂，并呼吁因 2025 年董事会选举因单一代理投票争议被废止而对其进行司法清盘。
- ICANN 已警告可能取消认可；批评者认为 AFRINIC 的选举规则使公平投票“无法运作”，开创了危险先例。
AFRINIC 因一次代理争议取消选举
AFRINIC 因单一代票投票争议突然取消了其 2025 年 6 月的董事会选举，使整个过程无效，并丢弃了众多成员提交的有效选票。这引发了整个社区的广泛批评。
Cloud Innovation Ltd.，AFRINIC 的第三大成员，回应要求对该注册机构进行司法清盘，称 AFRINIC 是一个“失败的组织”，其治理“无可挽救”。它警告说，如果一个未经验证的代理投票就能使整个选举无效，那么根据 AFRINIC 的规则，任何民主程序都无法存续。
AFRINIC 的行动引起了 ICANN 的关注，其 CEO Kurt Erik Lindqvist 于 6 月 25 日发出信函，威胁若该注册机构不解决合规问题，将取消对它的认可。这一局面引发了人们对 AFRINIC 治理完整性和其管理非洲 IP 地址资源能力的质疑。

AFRINIC 的崩溃标志着对非洲数字主权的更广泛威胁
此案例反映了许多人现在所称的 AFRINIC 治理完全崩溃。通过因单一代理投票取消整个董事会选举，AFRINIC 以站不住脚的理由摒弃了成员的参与。批评者认为，这暴露了一个“无法运作”的选举框架——一个不再允许公平代表的框架。 另见: AFRINIC董事会面临合法性考验.
Cloud Innovation 要求解散，突显了越来越多的共识，即 AFRINIC 作为注册机构已经失去了其正当性。ICANN 的反应，包括提及 ICP-2 合规，表明情况不再只是内部问题——国际治理机构正在考虑注销和替换。 另见: AfriNIC 董事会：治理非洲互联网的八人.
然而，ICANN 本身也难免受到批评。观察者认为，其对 AFRINIC 事务的兴趣代表着一场靜默的权力争夺，可能会凌驾于非洲自下而上的治理模式之上。其在未取得完全共识的情况下采用 ICP-2，表明其战略转向集中控制地区互联网资源。 另见: AfriNIC会员名册神秘消失.
若不紧急干预，AFRINIC 的命运可能会为先例，决定非洲利益相关者在他们数字未来中真正拥有多少发言权。 另见: AfriNIC 消失的成员登记册.
