Hi Noah, While sharing emails like this is interesting, I’d suggest leaving the emotion and profanity out of the email. It will add to your credibility and stop people just saying, there he goes on a rant…
The reality as we all know is that anyone in Africa can become a member of AFRINIC and micro membership fess are only $1000 – can you can get a /23, not just a /24. Since the internet is already a global eco system where everyone needs to work together, there are already organisations like ISOC etc to who do promote this freedom they speak of. Education is key, we all know this.

I mean, reading the bullshit in the below email from one of the NRS representatives, a one Fiona Mwangi, clearly shows that Lu Heng is stopping at nothing to pretend and fake it that he has legitimate customers in the region by dashing out free /24's and some 1 month free VPS access and free Cloud services. Is this how Lu Heng intends to justify that CIL has real end-users in the AFRINIC service region because that would be broad day light deceit and dishonesty. Who the heck provides free /24 IPv4 block, free VPS and free Cloud Services. Talk of bullshit and hamburg.
