Why does it seem like each new day in America is a horror show? Keep the caps on the pricing for all internet sites. Tamira Thayne Tami(a)tamiracithayne.com Tami(a)whochainsyou.com Publisher, Author, Animal Activist http://www.whochainsyou.com P.O. Box 581, Amissville, VA 20106

[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] AGAINST this proposal
by Gordon J. Daugherty April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

I oppose the proposal to remove price caps. This proposal would make the sole provider of a public resource able to charge whatever price it wants for said resource. That’s a recipe for disaster. ** This email and any attachments may contain information that is confidential and/or privileged for the sole use of the intended recipient.

[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] DO NOT LET PIR SET WHATEVER PRICES IT WANT
by Web Administrator April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

To whom it may concern, Dear ICANN, Greetings of Peace! We are a group of fraternal brotherhood (non profit organization) that acquire .org domain as part of our mission and vision to enhance our capability to unite the brotherhood and serves our country better. This domain name: rgbwi.org symbolizes our camaraderie because of the domain extension of ".org" which means organization and this can also boost the moral our members. Most groups that utilize .org domain are Non-Profit Organization thus please when you renew your contract to PIR, DO NOT ALLOW them set whatever prices they want because they can charge 100 times as much which our organization can not handle because we do not generate profit. We just only received donation and a small amount members dues (our members are from all walks of life, some of them can not guarantee to pay their member dues) which is enough to finance the day-to-day expenses of the organization. In addition, we are also conducting outreach programs and charity events that help our beneficiaries (in many ways) in various location where our organization is present. This can impact our budget and our mission to unite the brotherhood and also help others. We are hoping for your understanding to please DO NOT ALLOW the PIR to set the prices of the domain .ORG. Thank you very much. Jeffrey Olivo Volunteer/Member Reborn Guardians Brotherhood Worldwide Inc. Administrator, rgbwi.org website

[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] Opposed to the new .org agreement
by Chris Hutchings April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

To whom it may concern: I am a .org registrant. 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. This could result in a transfer of funds from millions of non-profits to one non-profit, with no benefits to the domain registrants. 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 .org registrants, in particular the non-profits. 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. Regards, Chris Hutchings

[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] Uncapping prices
by Neil Guidera April 25, 2019

I believe uncapping the costs for Domain registration would be horrible. Currently renewals are already much higher than they have ever been in the past and removing a cap would allow them to skyrocket. Sincerely Neil Guidera last Stop Haunt.org Sent from my iPhone

[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] price increases with .org
by john＠heartcorerecruiting.com April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

I second what Ian has said. "I am a domain name registrant. ICANN staff 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 policy making is supposed to be a 'bottom up, multi-stakeholder model'. I believe that legacy gTLDs are fundamentally different from for-profit new gTLDs. Legacy TLDs are essentially a public trust, unlike new gTLDs which were created, bought and paid for by private interests. Registrants of legacy TLDs are entitled to price stability and predictability, and should not be subject to price increases with no maximums. Unlike new gTLDs, registrants of legacy TLDs registered their names and made their online presence on legacy TLDs on the basis that price caps would continue to exist. Unrestrained price increases on the millions of .org registrants who are not-for-profits or non-profits would be unfair to them. Unchecked price increases have the potential to result in hundreds of millions of dollars being transferred from these organizations to one non-profit, the Internet Society, with .org registrants receiving no benefit in return. ICANN should not allow one non-profit nearly unlimited access to the funds of other non-profits. ICANN appears to be entirely catering to registries by removing price caps. ICANN should stand up for the public interest and registrants!

[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] Disgraceful
by Luke Jacobs April 25, 2019

April 25, 2019

If you want to make more money off .org domains then go after people using it as a domain for for profit businesses or something. You shouldn't be messing around with this nonsense period, but to do it for a non profit organization is absolutely disgusting. You are disgusting individuals and I hope karma bites you in the ass as soon as your ridiculous deal goes through.
