My latest piece is about what is happening with the digital agenda and the #geopolitics in Brazil:

Fasinating development in the AFRINIC saga as the receiver calls new elections and disallows all proxy voting.
ICYMI disputed proxies were the reason the last election was annulled.
I expect this will be challenged in the courts and the situation will get messier and messier and messier.
While I'm here - a quick #journorequest to speak with any AFRINIC resource members about their experience of the last election. I can be reached in confidence here https://lnkd.in/ez32n5vc

Talk about being put on ice! AFRINIC, Africa's internet registry, has been frozen in governance limbo since 2022 - complete with frozen bank accounts. When your IP address manager needs a reboot, you know things are serious! ICANN is now waving red flags about election oversight plans. Someone needs to hit the defrost button!
