No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices.

 

The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Their cost is something in the order

of under 25c a domain giving  close to a 100% profit.

 

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.
