Hello - I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Verisign is merely the manager of the .COM Registry – they have absolutely no business dictating the price. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest - so do it! An increase in .com prices would detrimentally hurt my business. Justin Arnold Small Business Owner, Chicago, IL
