I'm writing to Express concerns with the Verisign/ ICANN deal. There seems to be a lack of transparency and oversight about the $20M being paid by Verisign to ICANN.

It's also concerning that ICANN will allow Verisign to operate as a registrar. Allowing them to have more control and the ability to further raise prices.

I think there should be a period of time for additional review of the deal and voices of domain investors and website operators to be heard.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.
