I am appalled that ICANN and Verisign, organizations that have been trusted for decades to help monitor and expand the internet, have decided to unilaterally increase prices for domain names. Without so much as listening to what the effect on people would be. This will dramatically, and very detrimentally inhibit several smaller companies and individuals from effectively sharing their ideas, experience, and technology. I implore you to not continue with this decision. The internet, and information should be free to all. Not a commodity to be sold at whatever rate some greedy board members decide it should. The people's desire to freely share information should not fuel an executives motives, nor a company's bottom line. *In Christ,Dave Dreyer* *"He is no fool who gives what he does not have to gain that which he cannot lose." -Jim Elliott* *Honor.
