I do not support the proposed increase in fees. They are too open ended without any proper regulation. Dot com domains make up a large percentage of all domains and I feel the proposed increases will effect smaller website owners to the point that they may have to curtail their operations or increase prices, which may result in loss of sales and income. Many websites are run by bloggers and others who run them as information only sites for the benefit of others and these increases may result in people having to shut down their sites due to cost increases. Finally, I don't think it is appropriate that these increases have been inflicted without proper industry consultation. Regards Ray Posner
