Please do not amend the .COM Registry Agreement as planned. The changes proposed are not a fair and equitable treatment of new and existing .COM domain owners, and appears without more explanation to be an abuse of ICANN’s position in the domain name registry market. Increasing prices to increase profits with no driving increase in cost or expense on ICANN’s part is little more than abusing a monopoly over an international commodity.

 

ICANN should operate as a non-partisan, non-profit organization aiming to regulate domain naming with as much transparency and accountability to those it is providing services to as possible. Arbitrary and profit-seeking price hikes for ANY top-level domain should not be permitted, and doing so should result in ICANN’s loss of the ability to manage commodity TLDs.

 

Thank you,
