To whom it may concern,

I wish to voice my opinion in opposition to the proposed amendment 3 to the .COM registry agreement. It appears that the proposed amendment is designed solely to price smaller companies out of the .COM TLD market. The .COM TLD should not be reserved for multinationals or the rich and famous. Given that it's the globally recognised TLD it's unfair to make it financially unreachable to smaller companies and non-profit organisations.

We personally register annually over 20 .COM TLD's. If the proposed amendments causes prices increases of 70% or more that would be a huge hit to our already dwindling income from hosting and registration. You are going to force companies out of business by doing so - and to what end?

What is the proposed increase in registration cost supposed to do for the internet?

Unless there is a huge benefit for internet users in general I believe this amendment should not be allowed to go ahead.
