[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Against the proposed price increase.
by Joseph Paveglio Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

As a registrant of multiple .com domains I will happily be moving my business elsewhere should the price increase proposal go through. The prices are fine where they’re at. Increasing the prices continuously will only hurt ordinary citizens and most owners of .com domains. This is not done with the public’s interest in mind, and should be dismissed.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM price raise
by Mario Bruneau Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hi, I want to express my opposition to .COM price raise over the next decade. The price raise should not be greater than a 50% augmentation over the next 10 years. regards -- GuideAccordéon <https://guideaccordeon.com/> Mario Bruneau <http://mariobruneau.com> 401 Ave. Des Aunes, Magog, Québec (819) 769 1407 mbWeb <http://mbweb.ca/>

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] price changes
by Tony Bojko Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I’m not in favor of uncontrolled price hikes in .COM domains 8 of the next 10 years. This needs to be extremely limited in the amount of increase per year and what the increased prices are actually covering. I provide this service to my clients and large continued increases would hurt my small business customers.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Pricing changes to the dot com domains
by Chris F. Newby-Robson Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I have been advised by my registrar that ICANN have agreed a behind the scenes deal with Verisign that will from all reports hugely increase the cost of maintaining the registration of the aforesaid dot com domains. I see absolutely no justification in this action which will merely enrich Verisign at the expense of the all dot com domain’s users. I think it is absolutely diabolical that this deal has been negotiated behind closed doors without any consultation with the user who will be most affected by this deal. There is an alarming lack of transparency going on here, and there is talk of Version handing what is described as a large sum of money to ICANN, without any detail as to what this significant sum of money is to be used for.

I am a registrant of some .com domain names. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. 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. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Dean Erb London, ON, Canada * Dean

I strongly disagree with your proposal allowing Verisign to increase .com prices over the next decade. This will harm average internet contributors like myself that don’t have the resources to keep paying for all these increases and will harm the internet as a whole making it less accessible for average users to start .com websites.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Price Increases
by Cruz Oswaldo Del Toro Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hi there. Domains are already messy for non-tech people, everybody relies on Top level domain .com as a quick way to search if you increase prices, many companies will start moving to any of those weird top level domains making it hard especially to elders to understand how the Internet works. The Internet should be easy for everybody. -- Cruz Oswaldo Del Toro

Just read Namescheap newsletter, and it doesn't sound good to me that the ICANN is doing things in secret for things that affect the whole internet. ICANN should revert back your contract with Verisign and submit it to public vote.

by Kaushal Modi Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hello, .COM domains are one of the most common ones out there. Increasing the price on those will affect a lot of users especially the open source community who's trying to make the world better out there. I vehemently vote against the price increase on .COM domains. -- Kaushal Modi

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

Feb. 10, 2020

Hi ICANN team, I oppose Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement. There's no good reason for increasing the domain registrations costs. The number of top level domains are increasing and the technology costs of maintaining the registrations is increasing. We as an industry should work to drive the registration prices DOWN, not UP! Keep the web an open platform accessible to everyone. Thank you, James Rossy jmrossy.com

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I stand against .COM price increases!
by Alex Zahn Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I stand against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. What the world needs is more generosity and kindness, not more cold-hearted greed. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest, not for special interests. I will lobby for government regulator involvement if this proposal moves forward.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Oppose Increase price .COM
by Jan vdAa Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Dear ICANN Team, You’re created a great communication tool in the WORLD, Thank YOU Our website is for a social, non-profit club, many years ago, when our website was created the .COM was the only possible way to set up the website. for us to change now, would mean a lot of work. When your proposal is to increase charges for .COM that would be retrospective measurement. My suggestion is : all .COM websites created from a particular date in the future will cost more annually. The older one’s are protected, remain on the normal rates. Kind regards Jan International-Club-Andorra.com<http://international-club-andorra.com/>

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Complaint About Proposed .COM change
by Manu Khanna Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

Hi there, I’m writing to express my concern with this proposal. Allowing price hikes for 8 of the next 10 years is outrageous, and quite literally giving Verisign freedom to exploit customers. Additionally, with no clear definition of how the additional funds will be used; whether it will truly bring about improvements for customers, this seems like a proposal that is not focused on the best interest of customers. ICANN needs to do a better job preserving the interests of customers! -- -- Manu Khanna | San Francisco Mobile: (919) 386-9649

STOP ACTING LIKE THE 1% You are heading towards a GREEDY Place. STOP! Keep the internet FREE from GREED and Politics. Look into your conscience and do the right thing! The internet and "all it’s supporting cast” should be free from GREED! DO NOT put the cost of a Domain Name on a money revenue fast track. You will regret your greedy actions.
