I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Verisign is has a monopoly on .com registrations. It is an unfair abuse of power for the price to go up so much when the actual cost of providing the service continues to decline.
