What a greedy and needless push for more money. You, the people that maintain and uphold these policy changes, should be ashamed of yourselves!

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Mgon Feb. 12, 2020

Dear sir, I am a registrant of many .COM domain names, and I am most adamantly against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. It is a greedy grab for money. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. The system works fine the way it is. Do NOT break the system by getting greedy! Verisign has no business dictating the price of .COM domain names. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system *in the public interest*. If there is a greedy price increase to .COM domain names, I will not renew most of my .COM domain names, as I refuse to support a system ruled by greed. Mgon Emjion

Hi, It is really difficult to have increment in domain prices as country like Sri Lanka has just started it digital journey. More people are coming into web space and additional costs would be difficult for them to bear hence there can be step back. I would like to recommend you that it is better if you can reconsider the proposal based on the feedbacks. Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] No .com price increases
by Carmen Iao Feb. 12, 2020

The internet and .com are almost synonymous, and the proposed pricing increase by 70% is excessive and unwarranted. Furthermore, there is a lack of clarity about how ICANN will spend the money, or who will ensure that the funds are actually spent on domain infrastructure instead of lining individual pockets. I hope you read all of the opposing comments you've received and choose to kill this amendment. ᐧ

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] ICANN and Verisign price increase
by John-Erik Jordan Feb. 12, 2020

Feb. 12, 2020

I am dismayed to learn of the closed-door deal between ICANN and Verisign that will lead to significant .com price increases over the next decade. I am not against extra funding for data infrastructure improvements, but there needs to be much more transparency about the terms of the deal since it will affect so many small businesses and individuals. From what is visible to the general public, this deal looks like a conflict of interest bordering on corrupt practices. Prove me wrong by making the decision between ICANN and Verisign transparent, open to public scrutiny, and ACCOUNTABLE to the millions it will affect.

I oppose to this change since seems very shady and unclear. If prices rise thay high I do not agree with this change.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Do not increase the price
by GM elite Crystal Feb. 12, 2020

Hi, This is going to affect the internet market big time and it won’t have any positive effect and things will just get difficult for everyone. Please don’t increase the price and I would kindly request you to keep it as minimal as possible. Being online and having multiple websites for over 14 years .. I can already see this wouldn’t be a great idea. I teach people how to design, develop and market online and it’s only growing. Please don’t spoil it for everyone.. Thank you

Hello, I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. These increases will cripple a lot of new .coms and stop the growth of the business which is needed to have strong economies. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Verisign is merely your manager of the .COM Registry – it has no business dictating the price. Pranil Borse Pune, Maharashtra India

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com changes
by Hillary Wright Feb. 12, 2020

I am a budding entrepreneur who is often working on a tight budget. Increasing the price of a .com registration will result in a playing field slanted towards the big players. This would have a real impact on new companies getting established and on innovation in the long run. Much like the fight over net neutrality, this price hike threatens the openness of the internet itself. Please listen to all voices when making the decision to raise registration fees. Thank you, Hillary Wright
