Hervé Clément (Orange) rappelle qu'il n'y a pas que les noms de domaine dans la vie et que le registre d'adresses IP en Afrique, #Afrinic, est gravement menacé par la justice mauricienne et que c'est tout l'Internet africain qui est en danger.
@HopelessDemigod #ARIN is just the most classist paywallers, but #RIPENCC, #AfriNIC, #APNIC ain't conceptually better...
The core problem is that said resources are monetized.
Only IPv4 adresses are limited tho and the fact that the DoD has several /8's - one is already enough to give every enlited member, vehicle and weapon system a static public IPv4 - it's just extremely wasteful.
In fact, a huge warm asset of Apple is the fact that it owns a /8

Attention tech journalists:
Can I convince you or your colleagues to report on some really important and potentially very consequential Internet governance issues that have been going on? This really is kind of a big deal and almost no one is reporting on it. Boosts appreciated.
The Regional Internet Registries (#RIRs) such as #AFRINIC, #APNIC, and #RIPE, which among other things, manage the numbers (e.g., IP addresses) have quite literally been under attack at the governance level.
AFRINIC is currently in a very uncertain state and is probably the place you should start your research. Begin here and work your way backwards or forwards:

[en] Are you familiar with global IP address attribution? Each region in the world has an organism to take care of it. In Africa, that's #afrinic. IP addresses are worth a lot of money. In 2021, They've been attacked by a business from Hong Kong who obtained 6.2 million African addresses to be used outside the region - so Afrinic revoked the attribution and later won the court case https://apnews.com/article/technology-business-africa-china-uganda-5462f03bbd75bf9724a26623295fbf0e. Now, we learn of yet another attempt to undermine Afrinic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32xCurWfJo4

Le registre d'adresses IP #Afrinic est actuellement l'objet d'une attaque juridique dans un conflit qui l'oppose à un revendeur d'adresses IP. La justice a gelé les comptes bancaires d'Afrinic, menaçant à terme l'Internet africain. Il ne s'agit donc pas d'une affaire purement privée entre deux organisations en conflit. https://www.bortzmeyer.org/afrinic-sous-attaque.html
