.com domains should absolutely NOT be increased price wise as they have no reason to. Thank you -- Ollysholotan.com Instagram.com/ollysho Twitter.com/AfricanGodling ᐧ

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .com Registry Agreement
by Tom Fox Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I feel that unless some kind of significant value is added to the domain name system as it currently exists, there is no actual reason, beyond profiteering, for the proposed changes. While I have no objection to any company making profits, it should be done so honestly. Verisign and ICANN should simply make it known that they have a desire for increased profits and are therefore increasing prices in order to fulfill that desire. Thank you, Tom Fox

Very concerned with reports I'm hearing about potential fee increases for .com domain registrations possibly in 8 out of the next 10 years, and with no bounds/limits? If true, it puts a lot of small businesses like mine at further risk - we face mounting labor costs, regulatory costs, city and state taxes - it really adds up and makes it very tough to stay in business. I STRONGLY encourage doing everything possible to keep domain costs at a low level. I'm also disturbed to hear that Verisign will pay ICANN $20M --- that seems a guarantee that domain fees will rise when they want their payback. That seems like a conflict of interest to ICANNs stated reason to exist... Joe joe williams | ceo | elmore electric | (GMT-8:00) | +1.206.213.0111 main | uselmore.com | highlinerlighting.com

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] ICANN .com price increase
by Philip Mateescu (VarC) Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I oppose the ICANN proposed price increase for .COM. It is unclear to me how this change benefits all who at have built a presence on the .com TLD and what ICANN plans to do with the increase in fees. We’re already faced with a flight from .com which benefits domains under control by, at times, questionable entities. This move will not only further this flight, but will sully the good name of the .com registry and cause future decrease in sales and profits. I ask that ICANN reconsiders this decision and reverts its proposed changes to the Verisign contract. Philip Mateescu President • www.variableconsulting.com •

by Steve Lamas Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hello, My name is Steve Lamas and I am a small business owner. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the changes made to the contract between ICANN and Verisign, Inc. Specifically, I think the price increases are outrageous, and will hurt small business owners like myself, and the internet as a whole. Thank you for your time. Steve Lamas

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed changes to domain fees
by Carley Chamberlain Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

As a small business owner currently paying for two domain names, I find the fees already quite high. The closed door changes you’ll be making to domain fees is quite intense and you’ll be shutting the doors on a lot of home run small businesses over the next few years if these changes are implemented. The majority of people who own .com addresses aren’t bringing in 20M contracts that can afford them drastically higher fees on simple expense. -- Carley Chamberlain 416.629.0644 @carleyartistry www.carleyartistry.com www.facebook.com/carleyartistry
