[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Com domain price increase
by Laura Hancock 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. 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. This is clearly not in the public interest and is an overreach. Laura Hancock Ypsilanti, Michigan United States

Verisign is only being selfish with this proposed price increase. The internet is about the most valuable gifts we have today and a price hike for the most established extension isn't in the interest of the general public. Kenechukwu Udeh Awka

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] annual price increase
by Nina Simonowicz Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I am opposed to the increase in price. In order to have a url, common sense dictates that you purchase the same url in all the categories - .com, .org,.net and ones with similar spelling. So it is easy for one website - commercial, charitable, educational - to have to have pay for 9 urls a year; at an average price of $38, that's $342. For a small/1-person or charitable organization, that can be steep. Sincerely, Nina Simonowicz -- Nina Simonowicz

ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. The current price structure is perfectly sufficient, in my opinion, at this time. For small time domain holders an increase would price it out of reasonable range. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Noel Diaz Houston, Texas United States

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Deetjen, Eric L [US] (MS) Feb. 10, 2020

To whom it may concern, I would like to repeat many of the other concerns pointed out by my fellow Dotcom owners. I am concerned about this amendment to the Registry Agreement because it will affect, not just me, buy any individual who would like their own domain name. I am sure that no corporation will object to the 28% cost increase every six years as they earn money off their domain name and paying almost any amount would probably be acceptable to them. However, there are a great deal of small businesses that would see this as a burden as well as individual users (like me) out there that have purchased their own domain name and are using it for personal use, not commercial use. I understand that it would be almost impossible to create a regulation that would charge businesses more and individuals less, however, that may be what is required at this time. This would allow for businesses to have an individual register their domain name, however, no corporation of any size will be willing to leave their domain names in private hands. This would also allow fledgling businesses (aka startups) to keep their costs low at first. Remember, many businesses have been started in individual's garages. My domain has been used primarily for personal use. Please keep the annual fee very low or consider a more flexible charging system for the .COM top level domain that will keep it accessible to individuals and small businesses. Thank you, Eric Deetjen

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .COM Price Increases
by Kyle Randall Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I am absolutely against raising the price of .COM domain registrations. Increasing the prices set a dangerous precedent on an industry that seems already monopolized. Protect our free speech. Protect the one outlet the world has to raise a voice. Please don't capitalism further corrupt this global network. You hold a HUGE responsibility, and I am ashamed and sad to even hear of these changes.
