[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Domain Price Increase
by Sherry Shiku Feb. 11, 2020

It's absurd and selfish to increase the prices of .com domains by such a huge margin. So many website holders would be unable to maintain keep their websites live, affecting numerous livelihood. It's a selfish decision that needs to be stopped immediately.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Opposition to Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement

To whom it may concern. >From an outsiders view these changes to the agreement in question seem to only benefit Icann and Verizon financially with the ability for both companies to further create a monopoly with no direct explanation and what benefits it would do for the process of renting and registering .com domains. I would like to see reports and why a price increase is needed? Are both companies struggling to make their operations a viable business with the current agreement? Or is this change simple to creat financial increase to ICANN and Verisign. You don’t have to answer that because if it were true you would say it outright. However your new agreement clearly says that by itself Nothing about these changes seem to benefit any other parties. The services offered here effect the entire world. From my understating at its core 2 main companies seem to be in control of the core pricing of these domains. Therefore we as the users of these services have the right to know what such agreements are made. Marcel

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I am against the proposed amendment 3 on .com domains
by Luis Hernandez Feb. 11, 2020

I am a small business owner and come from a family very involved in the IT world for many decades now. For me, this proposed increase in pricing for .com domains and its subsequent handing of a huge control over the domain registries in the internet to Verisign hurts more than it could ever benefit the average internet user. The .com domains have taken an increasing role of importance in the development of the internet as we know it, and this has also been helped by it been as fairly priced as it is right now. By increasing .com registry prices in an aggressive way as it has been proposed, you are providing small businesses like mine with a big blow to their bottom line, disrupting the economic growth of the nation as a whole and potentially having huge repercussions in the way the internet in itself works. We, as internet users and domain registers ask ICANN to intercede for what’s right and do not allow a company to have such power to monopolize one of the most important assets in the internet. The internet will thank you!

ICANN made these changes in secret, without consulting or incorporating feedback from the ICANN community or Internet users. This should be reverted. Regards, Shubham.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Domain Price Increase
by Domas Jokubauskis Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Hello, I would like to express my dissapoinment that .COM domain price is bound to increase without eplaination of additional expenses for ICANN. This price hike would make it difficult for Lithuanians and other citizens of poorer countries to be part of internet community and provide services for global consumption. I believe that price regulation for public and essential services like DNS should be transparent and based on expenses rather than arbitrary numbers. I hope you will reconsider pricing .COM higher. -- Pagarbiai Domas Jokubauskis

Hopefully this will go to the right peraon. The said increase in the prices of .com domains is unfair and an unwanted decision. Please revert these amendments and only proceed when the whole community is on one stance. Thanks Rehan Farooq

Hi I was made aware that you are planning to do a few measures that will ultimately result in the .com domain name price increase. I am against it as it will in my view negatively effect the overall situation in the web space. Regards, Rashad
