Several possibilities…
1. Some successor takes over operating their network and takes
on the “organization”. In such a case, presumably ARIN would
need a process for an organizational name change. (I think this
is an operational, not policy matter).
Is the policy targeting humans or organizations?
The policy is targeting humans, but the statement above applies equally to
humans or organizations in the event an organization ceases.
For example, Exodus went bankrupt and was subsumed into Cable and Wireless…
Cable and Wireless became the successor and took over Exodus’ relationship
with ARIN, paid their resource fees and operation of their network.
2. The network ceases operations, and either by
notification to ARIN or through non-payment, ARIN
reclaims the resources.
But the person is deceased?
Yes, that was the premise we started with, the question was “what happens
when the person dies”.
So yes, all of my answers were possible outcomes after the person dies.
3. The estate transfers the resources under section 8 of the
NRPM.
So in their Will they will have to include information related to IP
addresses in ARIN records associated to them .... as part of their
property?
Either in their will or through other probate process(es).

Most likely the network resources will go to the same people that receive
the computers, routers and other network gear associated with the
resources.
Honestly, not much different process than the example corporate network
pass on cited above. Many people that run companies will have language in
their will allowing their business to continue to be operated while any
probate processes take place.
Does anyone know when the current language not allowing natural persons
was adopted, and some dates involved? Would love to look at the
discussion from then to see if there is anything discussed then that might
influence our decision now.
