[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Price Increases
by Ben O Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Hi, I hold many .com domains and this money grab that you are doing without consulting other portions of the industry is appalling. As a small business, these fees directly affect my business and my family and I hope that all considerations are being made before arbitrarily increasing costs.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] change in .com price increase
by Derek Rusher Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

To whom it may concern, Small businesses and non-profits already have enough expenses that increasing something that these businesses use could potentially close them down. Our business for instance has many domains for a variety of entities. We would ultimately shut down the domains that we did not see necessary and just run them through social media. If you are pro business, please do not increase prices on .com. Thank you, [cid:image001.png@01D5E0CD.23FF0250]<http://www.kearneycoc.org/>

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Leave .com alone
by Joseph Klett Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

To whom it may concern, I am aware of plans to squeeze internet business by raising costs on .com domains. Don't do it. This will ruin the internet we know, create a corporate garbage pile of worthless services, and drain your user base of very smart people who know when they're getting screwed by short sighted moneygrubbers. That would be you if you do what we all expect you to. Surprise us. Don't do it. Leave .com policies as they are and be content with whatever you have actually accomplished in this life. Joe

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com proposal
by Hank Cooper Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I disagree with almost all of the new proposals as they are more intrusive than the ones that are in place now. Instead of protecting the privacy of the individual and the freedom that goes with it the opposite is being proposed. The internet is going to be a double edged sword for the new generations coming up. Thanks Hank Cooper

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 Comments
by Maliik Morales Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Hello, I am writing in regards to the proposed amendment 3 changes that would effect the .com TLD. As one of billions of internet users around the world I think it is shameful what contract changes ICANN and Verisign have agreed to behind closed doors. This process should have been more democratic from the beginning and this I am against these changes. I urge you to please negotiate a deal with Verisign that would not put .com domains at risk of becoming a premium product that only few can access. Thank you, -Maliik Morales

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Monopolistic
by Walter Cai Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Why is ICANN enabling monopolistic behavior from Verisign? Is a strangle hold on the .com class of domain names really worth only 20 million? Walter Cai Computer Science PhD Student University of Washington

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] NO to Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry
by scott bertrand Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

ICANN, I oppose your new Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry. This will raise the price of .com domains for the consumer, and undermine fair competition. Last time you ignored comments from consumers and other domain registries. Please listen to our concerns this time. Azra Bertrand Sent from Outlook<http://aka.ms/weboutlook>
