[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM prices
by Wayne Sankarlal Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Yet again backroom deals are constraining the internet and its original vision. This from your own website - "It (ICANN) promotes competition and develops policy on the Internet's unique identifiers. Through its coordination role of the Internet's naming system, it does have an important impact on the expansion and evolution of the Internet." How then does a secret deal with a single entity like Verisign which is for profit while you are non-profit in any promote competition. If Verisign doesn't want the .com TLD they can sell it not use it like a cash cow with ICANN's explicit and implicit agreement. If you continue on this path, be honest and change your raison d'etre. I'd suggest, "Open to the highest bidder". *_______________________________________* *Wayne Sankarlal | m: (416) 779-2231 * *Dhilan/Nikhil Corporation* *2-157 Harwood Avenue North, * *Suite 507* *Ajax, Ontario* *CANADA L1Z 0B6* This electronic message contains information from Dhilan/Nikhil Corporation which may be privileged and confidential.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Price Increase
by Kaye Han Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

In order to have a fair internet, we need fair and accessible pricing for domains. Increasing the price of .com domains is a huge threat to this matter of equity. Please don't go ahead with this. Thank you, Kaye

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Sedim Al-Araji Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hello, I am writing to voice my opposition to Proposed Amendment 3. Despite there clearly being potential financial gains to be had by raising the registration fee on .com domains, the global DNS registration system should be run primarily as a public concern. The only entities that stand to benefit from the proposed arrangement are verisign itself, at the expense of the public. While price hikes such as this likely won't mean much to the larger business concerns that buy in bulk, it will impact the millions of small, independent businesses and developers that rely on the system as is to make their livelihood. At worst, this could prove yet another point of pressure that convinces a small business to make their online presence exclusively in the Facebook walled garden and eschew the web itself. The web, and global DNS, were envisioned to be run for the public good, and they SHOULD be run for the public good. Deals such as this are an abdication of that mandate; short sighted profit chasing at the expense of all else. Please do not adopt this proposal. Best, Sedim Al-Araji Fair haven, NJ

I am a registrant of a ilake.com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. The current rate of $12USD is already far more than justified. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Hugo Molina Puno, Perú Enviado desde Correo<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> para Windows 10

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Removal of Price Caps for .COM Registries
by Damian Rossney Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I submit this comment in opposition to the proposed changes to the ICANN agreement with Verisign. I believe that the price increases allowed under this agreement are unnecessary, discriminatory, and will result in decreased access to the internet worldwide. These proposed increases severely diminish the internet's impact as a global equalizer that levels the playing field for information and communication around the world. Please do not remove the price caps. Damian C.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com price change plans
by dr.metwlly Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I am very disappointed to hear about your plans to change the .com prices that will affect me and many other who bought these domains. If you want to do something that could be helpful to the industry as a whole you should be planning the changes not to affect the already present customers who made yheir plans based on the original prices.Thank you Ahmed Metwaly Sent from my Samsung device

Please do not update the .com registry prices per your plan with Verisign because these price hikes will stifle innovation for small businesses. Thank you, Nathan
