[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement

To whom it may concern, this Amendment is unacceptable and goes directly against one of the original purposes of ICANN, which is to *introduce *competition between registrars, *not* remove it. The fact that Verisign would be allowed to operate its own Registrar basically allows it to build a monopoly, not dissimilar to Amazon selling the same products as the retailers in its Marketplace at better conditions by using privileged knowledge of the market and its customers - which only lead to Amazon's growth, in *detriment* to the market itself and its consumers. Also, 7% price increases, year over year, is astronomical and absolutely unrealistic. Sincerely, Y. Mayer
