[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Price increases
by Philip Carlson Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

So long so many individuals, companies, and businesses rely on the fair price of the .COM to reach further than their street corners. Please don’t hurt us that need this space to promote our work and voice. Keeping the price locked in where it has been will help keep all of us successful in our lives. Philip Carlson FatherT.I.E.

My Community has a history of technological backwardness, and this will Stop people that i want there Business to be head by the rest of the World. They won't peak interest in an extremely expensive idea as they earn little. Its better to Decide if we want more people on www or not.

Dear Sir/Madam: I am writing to oppose Proposed Amendment 3. Despite there clearly being potential financial gains to be had by raising the registration fee on .com domains, the global DNS registration system should be run primarily as a public concern. The only entities that stand to benefit from the proposed arrangement are verisign itself, at the expense of the public. While price hikes such as this likely won't mean much to the larger business concerns that buy in bulk, it will impact the millions of small, independent businesses and developers that rely on the system as is to make their livelihood. At worst, this could prove yet another point of pressure that convinces a small business to make their online presence exclusively in the Facebook walled garden and eschew the web itself. The web, and global DNS, were envisioned to be run for the public good, and they SHOULD be run for the public good. Deals such as this are an abdication of that mandate; short sighted profit chasing at the expense of all else. Please do not adopt this proposal.

The internet was designed to be used by everyone, these planned changes go directly against this and will make the rich richer and startups poorer.

by Domains Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I read with dismay that .com domain name prices are subject to significant price increases in the coming years. This is not acceptable and it's also considered to be an clear demonstration of exploitation. DO NOT ABUSE YOUR POSITION OF TRUST! Signed, Christoper Silverthorne.

To whom it may concern, This change more then likely has no direct impact on you "high up executives" in any form other than beefing up your salaries to "go with the flow" of what the person paying you is asking for. Well for us "normal" people who live paycheck to paycheck this change that you decided to go forward with without asking any icann community members which is beyond bad business practices sure as hell impacts us. This increase is in an area you really have no business being in because we are the owners of the. Com domains we purchased. That's the problem with executive and politicians they always stick their nose where it doesn't belong and force people to make changes and live in ways they are exempt from. For once in your lives out yourself in another person's shoes and quit thinking with your wallet. People are affected.

I do not agree with these changes as they will impact every user in the world in a very bad way. No one will be able to use .com domains if they are expensive. Please reconsider these decisions
