The .COM domain zone is a world leader among other domain zones and a global benchmark for the development of modern Internet technologies, and the Internet business as a whole. Recently, however, traditional domain zones have been under tremendous pressure from new domain zones and social networks. Therefore, it is very important for the world to have affordable and reliable .com domains, as this contributes to the development of the modern information business and information technologies.

The current registration and renewal prices are reasonable and adequate. Any increase in the prices of .com will cause a decrease in the development of projects in .com and the flow of potential customers to other domain zones or social networks. According to experts, the amount of funds necessary for the reliable functioning of the domain infrastructure (taking into account the number of domains in this domain zone) is about $3 USD per year for one domain. All of the above is the desire of the registry operator to get rich at the expense of domain owners. Removing the restriction on price increases will lead to negative consequences for the world community. Business is good, but only if it is done not to the detriment of the interests of the world community.

I ask you to prohibit price increases for .COM, since current prices are sufficient and reasonable, and fully satisfy the needs for ensuring the security and reliability of the domain infrastructure and contribute to the development of the .COM domain zone, and is in the interest of the world community.
