[Comments-info-renewal-18mar19] Proposed removal of price caps
by cr April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

As the owner of two non-commercial .info domains, may I strongly object to the proposed removal of price caps on domain registration. Anything I put up is for the information of interested people only. I make nothing from my website and don't want to. My only return is the occasional email thanking me for the information, and that's fine. But I certainly don't wish to pay commercial-level fees for what is essentially a hobby. If the Internet is to be regarded as a means of facilitating communication, it shouldn't be hampered by cost barriers at rates greatly in excess of the actual cost of providing the service. Thank you Chris Rodliffe New Zealand

Hello, I’m strongly for keeping a price cap for the .org TLD. Many organizations are short on money. Marcel Reschke Dortmund, Germany

[Comments-info-renewal-18mar19] The proposed .info agreement is a bad idea
by Mark DuBois April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

I respectfully make the following comments. Legacy gTLDs are fundamentally different from for-profit new gTLDs and should be treated that way. Legacy TLDs are what the internet was built on. They are essentially a public trust. They are very different than new gTLDs which were created, bought and paid for by private parties. Registrants of these legacy extensions should be entitled to price predictability & stability. Advancements in technology should be driving the cost of operating a registry down, yet prices keep going up? Removing price caps is unfair to the millions of domain registrants. They will have no price protections. Every registrant will be at the complete mercy and whims of the registry. ICANN is supposed to represent a "bottom up, consensus-driven multistakeholder model". ICANN should not unilaterally impose URS in legacy TLDs when that issue is precisely what is being examined by the volunteer ICANN Working Group who has been mandated to review this issue. ICANN should be looking out for the .info registrants. There is no "public benefit" justification to these changes. It is just a handout to business at the expense of registrants’ rights and protections. Where are the protections for the millions of domain registrants that this could effect in a negative way? These changes would give way too much power to the registry. This is not acceptable for a "public benefit" organization that exists to represent many stakeholders. -- Best always, Mark DuBois (mark.dubois.asiw(a)gmail.com) This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and are intended only for the use of the individual or entity to whom this message is addressed.

[Comments-info-renewal-18mar19] Please don't
by Andy Pfeiffer April 25, 2019

Hi, Please don't remove the price caps for what's meant to be an informational-only site domain. These sites are not for profit; therefore, it is robbing the innocent to take additional money for the sake of corporate special interests. There is no point in this change, so I am handing you my opposition to it. Thank you for your consideration. Andy

I am strongly opposed to the removal of the price cap for the .info domain. Doing so serves no useful purpose and will be a detriment to many organizations and businesses. -- Mitch Claborn 469-342-2126 mitch(a)claborn.net http://www.mitchclaborn.com @MitchClaborn

I see no justification for Uncapped pricing and the potential for a lot of harm - why would prices be uncapped now everyone has domains? That just seems... Dodgy.

[Comments-info-renewal-18mar19] Supporting price limits on .info domain names
by Joni Holderman April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

I want to urge you not to lift the price limits on .info domain names via ICANN. This will pose yet another barrier to entry for entrepreneurs and small business owners, which will have a disproportionate effect on women and minorities. Let's keep domain names affordable, which benefits everyone across the economy by encouraging small business growth! Eliminating price limits is one more case of a government policy that benefits those who are already wealthy, at the expense of the average small business owner.
