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

Feb. 10, 2020

Good day, 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. Ryan Sturmer 14 Murray St, Suite 237 New York, NY 10007 United States

Good day I use the Internet but I am not a .com registrant. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Hiking prices for domain names makes them unaffordable for poor or third world registrants, increasing the divide between haves and have-nots. DNS is a system that relies on everyone using a single, authoritative source. Increasing prices could act to split the internet based on location or income level.

I am a registrant of several .com domain names. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. 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. If the cost of managing .COM names were increasing, I would have no problem with a gradual price increase, or finding a company other than Verisign to manage the registry if they could do it cheaper. However, based on the costs we know, and the costs of the new gTLDs, that does not appear to be the case. I'm highly disappointed that ICANN is relinquishing control of its responsibilities.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] I'm against this ridiculous proposal
by 二宝 Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

This is an official email, please read it carefully. Dear ICANN member, hello I just learned through my domain registrar that the com domain price is going to increase. In my opinion, I strongly oppose this ridiculous proposal! We know that a domain name is a symbol of a website's appearance and the cornerstone of the Internet. In my impression, the domain name should be a symbol of the Internet. The representative of the domain name, the com suffix actually intends to increase the price, and it is increasing every year. I can't understand the positive effects of this ridiculous proposal in addition to bringing profits to Verisign. Negative effects, I can cite a lot. For example, we are advocating free internet today, and we hope that everyone will build a website and become part of the internet. But this approach is clearly the opposite. I hope ICANN can reject this unrealistic proposal after serious discussion.                                                                                                                                                                                                Chinese personal webmaster,Liu Ming

Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement I am a registrant of several .com domain name. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified, perhaps bordering on extortion ... if the purpose of a higher price is to set a higher bar for entry, then why not have a high one-year price with steeper discounts for (e.g.) a ten-year registration.
