If price caps are removed, registration and renewal of these domains may become uneconomical, forcing many important organizations to change their addresses and threatening the prominence of .org. Unlike newer gTLD’s, .org is already very established. Allowing PIR, the registry operator, to act monopolistically with such a prominent TLD goes against what the Web should be.</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>~~~</p><p class=MsoNormal>Craig Smith</p><p class=MsoNormal>Michigan State University Student</p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:craig@craigsmith.dev">craig@craigsmith.dev</a> | www.craigsmith.dev</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
