[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] ICANN & VeriSign activity
by Remy Isaac Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Amendment 3 is a blatant abuse of position and its deplorable. Conducting closed door deals that impact millions of unsuspecting people simply for monetary gain is exactly the type of unscrupulous actions of a greedy tyrant. The people receive no significant benefit from this "amendment". The world is changing and this type of odious corporate behavior can topple even the biggest entities when its put on blast for all to see. -- Remy Isaac Executive Director AATAC ****CONFIDENTIAL - THIS EMAIL IS INTENDED FOR THE RECIPIENT ONLY AND ALL INFORMATION EXCHANGED BETWEEN PARTIES SHALL REMAIN CONFIDENTIAL & SHOULD NEVER BE DISCLOSED TO OUTSIDE THIRD PARTIES WITHOUT PRIOR CONSENT.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] ICANN price increases
by Andus H Brandt Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest, not for the benefit of one company's shareholders. Please lower the cost of .com domains in the interest of the public. Version has monopolized the management of .com domain names. This is not right. ICANN should do a U-turn and set this right!

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I want my voice heard
by Aaron Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

These changes will have significant impact on the Internet for years to come, and only ICANN and Verisign have participated in this decision. Given the significant, cascading, impacts I want to have my voice heard in this decision. This amendment will create a significant barrier of entry to people building an online presence. The public deserves a say in this decision, since this decision is impacting the public significantly. Sincerely, Aaron

This is terrible and isn't the will of the people that have helped your company grow. Doing this in secret as well is a surefire way to lose my support for any decisions from here on out, and I hope other people follow.

Hi there, Please revert the recent changes to .com TLD and stop the unchecked monopoly of VeriSign that these changes produce. ICANN is in the heart of the Internet and the .com TLD is the backbone of it. Please do not mess with it. Sent from my iPad

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by M&J Clark Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I am not for the Proposed Agreement 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement between ICANN and Verisign for the following reasons: 1. Much more transparency is needed with respect to how the $20 million dollars wil be spent to support ICANN’s domain name system initiatives. 2. Very concerned about price increases, commerce and connection for current and future domains and businesses stemming from this proposed agreement. Please rethink your stance on this proposal. Thank you for your consideration. - Mary Clark

I am against the increase that was proposed. I have multiple domains and have yet to see a valid argument for why the price increase benefits me, or other businesses. Please reconsider. Dan Weston California

Feb. 10, 2020

Greetings, I am a small business owner and a registrant of multiple .com domain names. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. No one other than Verisign want an increase in .COM prices. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. Daniel Ramirez Phoenix, Arizona USA

Please don't do this. I won't be able to afford any of my domains. My domains are my hope to get out of the rat race. Please don't take my hope away.

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.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Keep .com prices accessible
by andrew simpson Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hello, I just bought my own .com domain name last year. I was a student without much money. If .com prices were higher I think it will seriously discourage many young and less financially secure people from being able to access unique .com domains. Please do what you can to keep .coms accessible for small businesses and individuals. Thank you for your time, Andrew

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Delay rate increase
by Smith, Todd Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

It is a conflict of interest to allow VeriSign to be a domain register and be the administrator of the .com registry. Inflicting price increases for not real reason or then to pad VeriSign bottom line is unacceptable.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Transparency of pricing and intent of funds.
by Daniel Mitchell Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I'm disturbed to hear of the potential future price increases to wholesale registrar's regarding .com domain names. I would encourage more transparency in negotiations with corporations, clear rules regarding price increases, and further controls around how corporate money will be leverage.

Please do not allow the price charged for .com domains to go up by as much as 70% over the next ten years. This represents a flax tax on people creating websites. The cost of a domain represents a much larger expense to small owners than it does to big owners. If the price of .com domains is allowed to rise, it will be insignificant for large companies and very expensive for small companies. To raise revenue, please identify ways to do so which are progressive in the sense that they wouldn't hurt small owners more than large owners. Thank you.

I pay for my .com domain out of my own pocket. If I see such high increases, I could be forced to shut down my website. Don't do this to small website owners. Jared Crivello

I'm a french sysadmin that enjoy hosting services for me, my family and my friends around the world (french, german, russian, etc). I'm currently a registrant of a .com domain name, I use the .com TLD because it's for general use and it's not limited to a country. I'm against the price increase of the .COM domains, letting Verisign increase the price every year for 8 out of the next 10 years means that ultimately .COM domains will become less accessible and more expensive for everybody. This will inevitably kill the .COM TLD making it useless, and you know that you can do better for the public interest. -- Jason France

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] ICANN being bribed
by Lazy Coder Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

So what you are doing is letting Verisign bribe you with 20 million dollars to enable them to start bilking many more millions if not billions from their customers. Great trade off for you. Not so great for the rest of us.
