Dear ICANN,
 
I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains.
 
The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified due to the fact that technology and services should decrease in value over time and not increase.
Verisign is merely your manager of the .COM Registry – it has no business dictating the price, and no justification in increasing the price.
