Hello ICANN, There is absolutely no reason why .net should be going up in price. To the contrary price should be dropping. It only cost about $2-$3 a year to serve as a domain name, which you and everybody in this industry knows. It would probably be even cheaper if you guys didn't pay yourself such high salaries. How many people are now making over $400,000 and ICANN? Shame on you and your handling of the namespace. I remember when .net was about $6. There is no justification from you for raising the price. Stop your big government antics and put out .net for a competitive bid and the price will go down, you would be doing your job correctly, and the public would benefit from the new, lower prices. Do what's right for a change ICANN.
