To whom it may concern,

I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains.

I am a registrant of several .com domain names.

ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest.

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.

Love,
