[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] Feedback on the Proposed Renewal of .org Registry Agreement

"ICANN is a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation with participants from all over the world dedicated to keeping the Internet secure, stable and interoperable." I do not understand how ICANN can achieve the above while allowing unrestrained price increases on millions of domain names, I am objecting the proposal of removing the price cap provisions in the current .org agreement. Instead, ICANN should actively seeking new providers who can lower the cost of the .org domain names and award the agreement to a winning bidder, for the public's benefit. An open, fair and competitive process should be taken to procure the .org domain name operator before renewing any agreement.
