[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Andrea Castelli Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. I believe this is completely against the power that new technology like internet gave to any individual to build their own business with low investment. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Andrea Castelli Mexico City, Mexico City Mexico

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Price Increases
by Chris Brinkworth Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I was recently made aware of the arrangement between Verisign and ICANN regarding the ability for .COM price increases. I am concerned about the full potential of this new pricing ability and the lack of transparency around what these pricing increases might be needed for. I would like to see some disclosure about what initiatives these increases would be funding and some constraints on how far the increases can go. Please consider these points in your discussions. Thank you, Chris

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] The price increase doesn't matter much to me, but...
by Daniel Angell Feb. 11, 2020

The price increase doesn't matter much to me, but I don't agree with the way the amendment system works. For such an important asset as the .com TLD, one company shouldn't be able to propose a change to pricing, send ICANN $20 Million and then get whatever change they want. The scope of .com is too big to allow Verisign and other major TLD operators to have as much control as they do. I appreciate that the public comment period is a way to query other stakeholders in this matter, but we're at a huge disadvantage. We aren't the ones proposing this amendment and I'm sure we never could propose one. - Daniel Angell

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] OPPOSE the proposed rate increase
by Jack Heald Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I am deeply opposed to this unilateral move to allow prices for wholesale domain registrars to increase 8 out of the next 10 years. I am a retail customer. I know how this works. The wholesaler will not accept a reduction in his margins. No, the rate changes will be passed along to me. I hate it when utilities do this. It is unacceptable. It is an abuse of power. It is unethical. Stop it.

Do NOT raise the prices on domains. We small businesses are strained enough with taxes and costs. Small business are the world's largest employers! Why make things harder for us? Shame on your GREED!!!!

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Verisign increase

I vehemently oppose your projected increases on .com domains. This action will cause unfair hardship and place an undue burden on startups particularly those by marginalized and minority owned ones such as mine.

I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. 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. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. NICOLAS Lorient, Brittany France

I as a .com domains owner and reseller do not agree Verisign to be able to raise prices of the .com domains at the proposed scale. The price increase should be maximum 2% yearly and maximum 20% total in 10 years. utf8=✓ authenticity_token=WzxLaKFvp9xV3Jb7C1vFgk7N7rEvpcVPjPB6zzZpZHbxPrJnr3W+IPmrdHOm4gjwTk8XZtCHi7+3hj+piRvxAg== terms_of_services=yes commit=Continue
