i’ll save you some time. larus Foundation seems to be a shell in Hong Kong. with one employee named as the “Chair” since 1/2019. (She was previously executive assistant to the CEO of Larus Cloud Service Limited, and before that at University.). There is an org chart but nobody on Linkedin has said they hold any of the positions. (As far as I can tell, HK does not appear to be completely transparent about charitable foundations, but Larus Foundation Limited is listed on the govt list as a tax exempt charitable foundation, effective 10/08/2020.) and then there’s LARUS Limited tagline: "The Best IP Address Solutions On The Planet” which seems to be in the same business as the plaintiff. Hm, he’s the CEO since 2016 according to LinkedIn.

There are a bunch of other people copying-and-pasting that same expectation on the AfriNIC and APNIC mailing lists, and they’re all beneficiaries of something called the “Larus Foundation.” So, if you’re not getting paid to copy and paste that, you might want to look into it: https://www.larus.foundation I hear it pays pretty well. -Bill
