[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] Public Comment on .org registry agreement
I've owned ianwilson.org for 13+ years -- it's become where I share my thoughts, host my mail, and store many, many, many memories over the years. My email address -- me @ ianwilson.org is synonymous with personal self-expression. I usually get a "That's a really neat email!" and, "Oh! That makes sense" when I tell people my email address. Removing the price cap would ultimately lead to an (what I can only assume as) astronomic price escalation when businesses want to maximize profits. You might as, "Ian, why don't you move to a .name?" Simply put: I've had this identity for 13+ years -- I have no desire to change my domain to a .name (or any other extension, honestly). While I have no problems with businesses generating profit, I look at non-profits with limited donations, retirees (yes, there *are* tech retirees) with fixed incomes, and clubs with minimal memberships as an obstacle to obtaining a unique web identity. Please consider leaving the price caps in place for non-profits, individuals, and clubs who are registrants of .org domains. Thank you for allowing me to comment on this issue; Ian Wilson
