" to preserve and enhance the security and stability of the Internet"

" the domain name marketplace had grown more dynamic and concluded that it was in the public interest that, among other things, Verisign and ICANN may agree to amend the .COM Registry Agreement to permit an increase to the price for .COM registry services"

It's strange how it seems like the public (re: see all the comments submitted) seem to think that it's NOT in our interest as domain name holders for ICANN to agree to allow the monopoly Verisign has to profit even more.

I do NOT agree with this amendment. By increasing the price of .COM you are making it harder for less-privileged individuals to obtain a domain name and creating a strain on the public. This is not in the public interest. This does not enhance the stability of the internet.
