[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] I oppose removal of ORG domain name price cap

[Ruth Kastner]

To Whom It May Concern:

  I am opposed to the removal of the ORG domain name price cap.
ICANN has a public responsibility to impose limits on the use of their
de facto monopoly. ICANN'S abrogating of that responsibility would
give the Public Interest Registry free rein to charge any amount they
wished.

  In the past few hundred years, we have seen in the United States the
stranglehold that monopolies in the oil, coal, railroad and
communication companies have had on this nation. We have seen how
difficult it is to dismantle such a power structure once it is in
place.

  Please do not create another unlimited monopoly by removing the ORG
domain name price cap. Thank you for your attention.

Sincerely,
Ruth Kastner
