[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] OPPOSED: Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Stuart Carter Feb. 10, 2020

I own several .COM domains. All of them are personal and / or hobby sites. Your proposed fee changes would punish me financially for having hobbies. Do not impose these fee changes.

this move will hamper small independent start ups globally and stifle economic progress and innovation. It also makes our global economic system less resilient and more prone to market collapses. not to mention undermining current business that are already struggling. transparency and consultation in such a major decision that effects the global marketplace is essential. this latest news is very disheartening.

To whom it may concern, As a small business owner I DO NOT agree with or condone the proposed price increase to .COM domains. The rate at which domain fees are increasing is absurd and detrimental to the small business community. - Ben R.

Increase the costs of .com domain names would continue to centralize the internet and prevent people from buying and using names for what they need. Domain name prices should not increase. Sent from my iPhone

My name is Jonathan Preston. I am the CTO of a small business who manages sites for more than 500 domain names. It is my opinion that the current Verisign rate of nearly $8 is already too high, and should not be increased further. Thank you for your consideration.

by Michael Male Feb. 10, 2020

To whom it may concern: I am writing to register my opposition to the proposed amendment. The proposed amendment allows for .COM wholesale domain prices grow by more than 70% over current prices over the next ten years, also allowing for other price differences. This is an unacceptable way to handle the most popular domain name by far, and will lead to detrimental effects for many businesses. Your deal with VeriSign was made in secret and as an organisation overseeing domain names as a whole it is unacceptable to be so considerably opaque in your dealings. I am urging you to reconsider this amendment and balance the rights of Internet users over those of large corporations. Thank you.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I opposed the ammendment

I as an owner of several .COM domains, I am opposed to such large and unreasonable price increases that have no meaningful caps or limitations. Give that the current system basically allows Verisign to act almost as a monopoly, this action seems not to be in the general public interest and will have an outsized effect on non-business owners of .COM domains such as myself.'
