I wasn't lurking here during the initial discussion, so I'm sure I'm missing some of the broader implications. However, considering the pain I'm going through right now because of this very problem, I think this is a good idea. Many ISPs are not exactly prompt about removing delegations after they're no longer valid, and this should mitigate the effect of that on the customer (i.e. me).

The AC will evaluate the discussion in order to assess the conformance of this draft policy with ARIN's Principles of Internet number resource policy as stated in the Policy Development Process (PDP). Specifically, these principles are: * Enabling Fair and Impartial Number Resource Administration * Technically Sound * Supported by the Community The PDP can be found at: https://www.arin.net/policy/pdp.html Draft Policies and Proposals under discussion can be found at: https://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/index.html Regards, Sean Hopkins Policy Analyst American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) Draft Policy ARIN-2018-5: Disallow Third-party Organization Record Creation Problem Statement: Since the introduction of simple-reassignment some years ago, it is no longer necessary to allow for third-parties (such as upstream ISPs) to create organization records for another entity (such as their customers). In particular, many entities find that spurious organization records are routinely created in their name, causing both confusion and entity + staff time for clean-up. Therefore, this policy establishes that organization records shall be created only by the entity represented by the organization record, and should be created only through an explicit request to ARIN. ISPs wishing to reassign space to customers should either ask the customer for their ORG-ID or shall use the "simple reassignment" method which does not require nor create new organization records. ISPs wishing to reallocate space to customers should ask the customer for their ORG-ID. Policy Statement: Add new section(s) into the NRPM: 3.X Directory Service Records 3.X.1 Organization Record Creation New organization records shall be created upon ARIN receiving a request directly from an authorized contact representing an entity that ARIN is able to validate. Organization records shall not be created upon the request of third-parties.
