[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com price increases
by Tom Cruce Feb. 11, 2020

I think these 7% increases are out of line. Well above inflation and I suspect, well above your costs. So, stop trying to gouge us, and be reasonable. Thanks, TC

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com domain prices

I am a registrant of a .com domain name. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Awais

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Opposition of Amendment 3
by Blake Morton Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

It is very important that the web remain accessible, open, and affordable for both individuals and businesses alike. These price hikes may result in a drop-off of many .com domains for small businesses and individuals looking to build their online presence. Please consider opposing Amendment 3 in its current state until the pricing structure is established with the best interest of all in mind, not just those with deep pockets.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Do not support
by Roger Williams Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Do not raise prices of the cost of .com domains as it will only cause people to cancel .com domains and choose another domain extension. I do not support raising the price of .com domains.

I think it’s greedy to increase the .com registration fee. If it’s increased People like me that look forward to having a website one day will not have that capacity as an African that earn less than a dollar a day.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Increase in .com renewal cost
by P.Karthikeyan Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

As the new proposed contract makes a way to increase .com domain cost, small startups and budding entrepreneur will be affected badly. As we see lot of young entrepreneur starting from school. Also it affects side projects. It may be a small amount for Tier 1 countries but for Tier 2 & 3 it will be huge when we see an increase. So i hope you don't let verisign to increase domain price for wholesaler. Thanks, Kartik

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] personal comment on ICANN`s fee increase for .COM domain
by sadullo abdulloev Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

This is really not a fair step taken by ICANN & Verisign as I do not think it will affect positively the internet community and including your prestige. Personally me and dozens of my friends are totally against this act and we request like rest web society avoid price increase for COM. As it will affect development of worldwide web negatively. The idea of big companies, like Google, Facebook, etc. is to deliver internet to each and every household on the world and you guys are taking reverse step by stopping this campaign. Pls withhold!!!

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Internet is a utility vital for many people - keep prices of .com down
by tom＠richardhughesauthor.com Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Dear ICANN I have heard that you have agreed with Verisign that there can be huge increases in prices for .com domains. I keep quite a few of them, mostly to protect copyrights (for instance both my late grandfathers, Richard Hughes and RJ Minney, were authors) but I have also built a small global consulting business that relies on a .com domain and I spent 2 years trying and succeeding to recapture the .com name (munkination.com) my son had developed as a teenager but allowed to lapse, and only now age 27 he is starting to build it as a global creative brand, inspired by his teenage vision. Increasing the prices of .com domains would hurt me and my family and my business and damage our abilities to own our own brands and develop our lives and businesses, which is the requirement in the age where there are so many fewer formal sector jobs available. The price increase will be disproportionately and particularly badly felt in developing currencies where USD is already a big problem and the Internet is providing a great tool towards equality and self-advancement for millions of entrepreneurs. I urge you to peg price increases to a maximum that is in line with global inflation - treat the Internet like a utility such as water that we all need to survive. I am also alarmed by the accountability of the alleged payment to ICANN and wonder what precedent that sets as we saw ICANN as the non-profit guardian of the netizens - that kind of development money can easily be raised elsewhere without affecting so many million people. Tom

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Domain Price Increase
by Sherry Shiku Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

It's absurd and selfish to increase the prices of .com domains by such a huge margin. So many website holders would be unable to maintain keep their websites live, affecting numerous livelihood. It's a selfish decision that needs to be stopped immediately.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Opposition to Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Marcel Quintas Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

To whom it may concern. >From an outsiders view these changes to the agreement in question seem to only benefit Icann and Verizon financially with the ability for both companies to further create a monopoly with no direct explanation and what benefits it would do for the process of renting and registering .com domains. I would like to see reports and why a price increase is needed? Are both companies struggling to make their operations a viable business with the current agreement? Or is this change simple to creat financial increase to ICANN and Verisign. You don’t have to answer that because if it were true you would say it outright. However your new agreement clearly says that by itself Nothing about these changes seem to benefit any other parties. The services offered here effect the entire world. From my understating at its core 2 main companies seem to be in control of the core pricing of these domains. Therefore we as the users of these services have the right to know what such agreements are made. Marcel

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I am against the proposed amendment 3 on .com domains
by Luis Hernandez Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

I am a small business owner and come from a family very involved in the IT world for many decades now. For me, this proposed increase in pricing for .com domains and its subsequent handing of a huge control over the domain registries in the internet to Verisign hurts more than it could ever benefit the average internet user. The .com domains have taken an increasing role of importance in the development of the internet as we know it, and this has also been helped by it been as fairly priced as it is right now. By increasing .com registry prices in an aggressive way as it has been proposed, you are providing small businesses like mine with a big blow to their bottom line, disrupting the economic growth of the nation as a whole and potentially having huge repercussions in the way the internet in itself works. We, as internet users and domain registers ask ICANN to intercede for what’s right and do not allow a company to have such power to monopolize one of the most important assets in the internet. The internet will thank you!

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Domain Price Increase
by Domas Jokubauskis Feb. 11, 2020

Feb. 11, 2020

Hello, I would like to express my dissapoinment that .COM domain price is bound to increase without eplaination of additional expenses for ICANN. This price hike would make it difficult for Lithuanians and other citizens of poorer countries to be part of internet community and provide services for global consumption. I believe that price regulation for public and essential services like DNS should be transparent and based on expenses rather than arbitrary numbers. I hope you will reconsider pricing .COM higher. -- Pagarbiai Domas Jokubauskis

Hopefully this will go to the right peraon. The said increase in the prices of .com domains is unfair and an unwanted decision. Please revert these amendments and only proceed when the whole community is on one stance. Thanks Rehan Farooq

Hi I was made aware that you are planning to do a few measures that will ultimately result in the .com domain name price increase. I am against it as it will in my view negatively effect the overall situation in the web space. Regards, Rashad
