Dear ICANN, If the .COM price Increases, this will really hurt my small business. Please consider the amounts of people can buy .COM domain. Best Regards, Tam Dao from Vietnam. Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Protesting Renewal Rate Hike - like raising rents in Manhattan
by Amy _ Feb. 12, 2020

Feb. 12, 2020

Raising rates on .com is basically saying only the wealthy should be able to have the .com extension. Like only the wealthy should be able to live in Manhattan or San Francisco. We shouldn't subsidize your other domain initiatives. You are literally a monopoly on domains, and raising rates that we have to accept because you are literally the ONLY option we have is illegal. If you go through with it I hope it leads to busting this monopoly. 7% a year for 4 years well exceeds the rate of inflation. And it doesn't appear that we are benefitting at all, just price gouging. This needs to be fair. All websites are valuable and should be treated equally.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Do not raise dot com domain fees
by Jen Gosnell Feb. 12, 2020

Feb. 12, 2020

Raising these fees dramatically is wrong, plain and simple. The internet is for all intents and purposes a public utility. Extortion of the population for private gain is unethical. Make a better choice for the future of our nation! Corporations have a stewardship responsibility to the public. Hold yourselves, and them, to it. Sincerely,

Hello, I do not want the prices of domains go up due to verisign lobbying a deal for themselves. Please, keep low and transparent pricing. Thank you, Nodari Rizun

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com price hikes

If you're going to allow egregious price hikes like this, at least have the decency to be transparent about what you'll do with the money.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Unrestricted price increases? OUCH!
by Jay Gindin Feb. 12, 2020

I simply don't understand how ICANN, an organization whose mission is to manage some of the most important aspects of the *public* internet for the benefit of the *public*, an organization which claims to work in a "bottom-up, consensus-driven, multi-stakeholder model" can possibly even consider allowing a single entity such as Verisign to raise prices by 7% **every year*.* As others have noted, this may not be a big deal for big companies. It is a VERY big deal for those of us INDIVIDUALS who own a couple of domains and want / need to keep them. I strongly urge you to walk away from this HORRIBLE deal for the public that you are supposed to serve. jay
