[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Internet to to public

LS, The ICANN should support the open internet community in the broadest way, independent of organizations. The ICCAN may outsource activities, but not the accountability of the tlds. With the proposed amendment, the ICANN will give parts of the open/public parts of the internet to commercial organizations which are focused on profit and not the benefit of the public and open world. I have no problems that ICANN seeks support from private companies and pays them accordingly, but the ICANN must not run away from their responsibilities as the will do in this amendment.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] comment on Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Senor Duende Feb. 13, 2020

Feb. 13, 2020

To Whom It May Concern I am both a customer of the .COM domain system and a seller as a through my Hosting Business. The .COM domain name enjoys a de facto "default" status that encourages most new domain names to flow through to the .COM registrar, even after the introduction of the new gTLDs and country-specific TLDs. In the same way that the .ORG domain name should be managed and reserved for the enrichment of public organisations, .COM domain name should be made freely available to all people at a relatively cheap price. As we see an ever increasing amount of entrepreneurship, we see a massive decrease in the cost of compute; if anything we should see the wholesale prices for domain names lower. This should be done to make the internet more free and open, and encourage everyone to get domain names. I love domain names, and for me I would love it if domain names proliferated to the same extent as email addresses. I make a note of ICANN's vision which is "To be a champion of the single, open, and globally interoperable Internet". I do not see how increasing the price of Domain Names, which will only increase the operating costs of small business and individuals and not affect incumbent players in all markets (which the price increase will not even be noticeable). This action is completely in opposition of this vision. Please also refer to one of ICANN's Strategic Goals: "Sustain and improve openness, inclusivity, accountability, and transparency". How are you making the system more inclusive if the cost of a .COM domain name is about eight times more than what one third of the world's population makes per day? If anything, ICANN should be focusing on reducing the wholesale .COM domain price to make it more open and available. I wholeheartedly disagree with this move to make obtaining .COM domains harder. ICANN should reconsider this decision. Regards, DD https://dev.to/hammotime/don-t-let-icann-increase-the-wholesale-domain-name…

I am a domainer (I invest in domain names as a business). I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Kadir Tombak Selçuklu

Hi, I am a domainer (I invest in domain names as a business). 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.

The prices of .com domains should'nt increase. This is outrageous. What possible good could that do? More sites are being registered everyday, increasing the price is just being greedy
