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.
