[Comments-biz-renewal-03apr19] don't allow massive rate hits for domain purchases

Domain vendors being free to raise rates drastically each year would be a disaster for internet users and content creators. It would encourage unscrupulous bulk domain name purchasing, lining the pockets of scammers at the expense of individuals and organizations who are trying to make a home for their work on the internet. It would needlessly strengthen the hand of the Facebooks, Amazons, and Googles of the internet but stifling anything smaller in the ecosystem. Just as cities and states need rent control to prevent landlords from further crippling tenants, the goals of the internet are far better served when domains are kept inexpensive and readily available.
