[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Comment on Amendment 3 to the .com registry agreement

To whom it may concern: Briefly, I oppose amendment as proposed, specifically the provisions that support: Verisign and ICANN may agree to amend the .COM Registry Agreement to permit an increase to the price for .COM registry services, up to a maximum of 7 percent in each of the final four years of each six-year period (the first six-year period commenced on October 26, 2018). Verisign’s role should be to perform a public service. Increases should be restricted to no more than inflationary adjustments and there should be no room for potential profit-taking from such service. Regards, Mitch Allen
