[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Amendment 3 change comments.
by greatescapes＠charter.net Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

To Whom It May Concern, This amendment must not be ratified. This places an even greater financial burden upon small businesses and possibly an onerous increase in fees. The fact that the meetings held regarding this was private and the money changing hands to ICAAN without oversight or directives of use, is appalling. There is zero accountability and clandestine meetings are not a way to instill confidence in an organization that should have clear and visible organization, direction and operations. Regards, Robert Hopwood

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Amendment 3 Disagreement
by David Card Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

To Whom It May Concern, I disagree with the proposed changes in amendment 3, due to the likely effects they will have on internet users, specifically increased pricing which would result in higher costs for those wishing to start their own websites for small businesses, and other entrepreneurial ventures. Thank you for considering others, David

I am asking you to rethink the idea of amplifying .COM prices. It may have an adverse effect to many people businesses. Kindly, let the prices remain the same That's my humble request, and I believe it counts. Thank you Regards Duncan

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Your secret deal with Verisign
by Roger Piantadosi Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Like it will make any difference submitting a comment to any of you would-be watchdogs, but your proposed amendment, worked out as it was in secret with Verisign (an Evil Corp subsidiary) appears mostly to be a license to steal — as always, from those who can least afford it. So hey, good plan. I assume the median income of ICANN employees and contractors just isn't what it should be, at least not yet. Best of luck on your journey to the dark side — and if this involves any sort of eternal rotting in Hell . . . well, you earned it. *--* *Roger Piantadosi* *roger(a)synergistmedia.org <roger(a)synergistmedia.org>*

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] The system is working. Why raise prices?
by Ari Leibowitz Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I am very happy and have been very happy with the way .coms have been working. I am not happy to hear about prices changes and process changes. I host several websites for people and the consistent .com pricing helps me keep their prices nice and flat. Hearing about yearly prices changes sounds like an unnecessary headache for me and my customers. This change makes it sound like it might be easier to cut down the number of domains I have to save costs. These low domain costs allow me to offer several domains and several options to my customers. Please do not raise prices out of greed. This is a very low cost product. Yearly price increases are just not neccesary especially now with all the new TLD's and new money ICANN is making. -Ari

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] NO to proposed amendment 3
by Daniel Orozco Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I’m alarmed and saddened by Amendment 3 being approved without any input from people like me who hold IP addresses and pay annual fees for them. If I hadn’t been contacted by namecheap.com, I never would have know about this action, and I would have missed the deadline for comment. Don’t you guys inform us about this important stuff? Transparency?? Please reconsider this contract change with Verisign. Keep the internet affordable! I’m alarmed and saddened but I’m not furious, yet! Stop the Amendment. Thank you.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Do NOT eliminate the great equalizer!
by Brenda Trott Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

.com sites are the great equalizer between local businesses and the big corporations. If they become unreachable, many small business owners will be unable to compete. This means an even bigger gap in the global economy. Don't let the economy be driven by who already has money. .com's provide a way for those with great ideas and small incomes to be seen and sell genius!
