[rpd] New Policy Proposal - "Anti-Shutdown (AFPUB-2017-GEN-001-DRAFT-01)"

[Barrack Otieno]

Hi colleagues,

Interesting proposal, given the role of governments in our eco-system , i
would be keen to understand whether the same has gone through the AFRINIC
Government working group as Seun has indicated and their views on the same,
i think we should endeavour to keep the Internet on at all costs, any
punitive measure that can result in switching off the Internet or denying
users access in any part of the world is not ideal in my humble opinion.

Regards
