I am a registrant of several .com domain names.

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.


I ask you to please reconsider this proposal, and consider all users of the internet, rather than Verisign.  Thank you!
