I am not in agreement with the recent agreement between ICANN and Verisign that will significantly impact (decrease) the accessibility of domains for small businesses and the digital community as a whole. Increasing wholesale domain prices potentially more than 70% over the next decade is unacceptable. Please reconsider. At a minimum, Verisign needs to implement accountability measures on how ICANN is going to use this additional $20 million dollars over the next 5 years and ensure that the funds are properly spent on domain infrastructure.

These changes will have significant impact on the Internet for years to come, and only ICANN and Verisign have participated in this decision. If you want to make sure your voice is heard, let ICANN know how you feel about their recent decision.

Verisign will be allowed to increase the wholesale price to registrars for .COM domains every year for 8 out of the next 10 years, and the increases don’t stop there.
