Cmon folks….!

@Elvis, I really don’t see your point here and also don’t really understand why are you opposing against this proposal.

As mentioned further on the thread - RPKI won’t change Afrnic´s role at all…. Instead this proposal will certainly contribute to a more secure routing advertisement.

As such, other RIR´s have successfully implemented this in order to protect our garden so called “The Internet”.
