[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Amendment 35
by Brian Harris Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

A 30% price increase for domain registration over the next few years is inappropriate, unethical, and unacceptable. If I increased the price of my products by 30% I would be out of business. Please refrain from such abusive action that appears to lack transparency. Thanks, Brian

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Feedback on Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by John Sheu Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I am concerned about allowing Verisign, which effectively has a monopoly on the .COM registry, to make significant price increases (7% per year, well above the rate of inflation), especially considering that the cost of computing and connectivity continues to decrease rapidly. I also do not see how Verisign will provide meaningful added value to customers, as a result of these price increases. Thank you for listening. Regards, John

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .Com Price increase
by Kevin Collins Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

It is my understanding that you've made a deal with Verisign that would allow them to raise prices on .COM domains over the next 10 years. This is not acceptable. The cost of technology gets cheaper every year and you want to raise the price? It should be lowered if anything! It will hurt many small business owners and is nothing more than a tax increase. It's decisions like this that get people in an uproar and you're going to find yourselves getting heavily regulated. I hope you see your way clear to reject this very bad idea.

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

Feb. 11, 2020

Hello, This was recently brought to my attention. I do NOT agree with the proposed hike. I am a registrant of a few .com domain names. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. I believe that 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. Shon McCray El Sobrante, California United States

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I will never use .com again if this goes ahead
by John Frazer Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

If you proceed with this, I will never buy another .com domain. There are so many alternatives now it would make no sense to do so under these ridiculous proposals.

As the owner of two domain names intended for use in currently not for profit websites for amateur historians I am happy for any improvements in the security, stability and resiliency of the DNS. I also respect the need for the regulation of those services to recover the costs of doing so but I trust that prices will not be made prohibitive to various users of these services. At this point in time I am not knowledgeable enough to make any comments on the specifics of the agreements nor to make any suggestions for improvements. Sent from Mail for Windows 10
