This page brings together the mission, principles and public invitations of NRS’s earlier homepage, first published in 2025 and shown here as it stood in October 2026.
The case for ownership
NRS presented itself as a global nonprofit membership organisation campaigning for businesses to own the fundamental assets of their IP business. Its argument was direct: businesses depend on IP addresses, yet allocation and control rest with groups of policy specialists. NRS’s position was that businesses should own their IP assets.
Three principles
- One Internet, one world: a unified Internet with minimal fragmentation and seamless global connectivity.
- Open and autonomous infrastructure: an Internet that is free, open and accessible without external interference.
- Decentralized governance with AI: a decentralized Internet with minimum human participation at its core.

Campaigns and public statements
“Vote for a Better Future” led to the AFRINIC election campaign. The page also highlighted the unity and trust statement to members, and a slider urged support in an APNIC election. Those campaigns are told in full in their own records.
Watch and read
The slider invited readers to the NRS YouTube channel and featured “Lu Heng speaks on the value of IPv4 addresses”; the channel’s library holds the recordings, and the rotating blog selection lives on in the article index.
