[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Opposition to usurious price increases

[Stephen Schiff]

Sirs:

It has come to my attention that you plan to increase prices for .com 
domain registration by 7% per annum over the next several years. This 
despite the low inflation rate that is being experienced in most 
countries.  I see this as a blatant exploitation of your virtual 
monopolistic position to raise profits at the expense of mostly small 
domain registrants like myself.

I rely on my website to disseminate information about my small business 
and to facilitate sales.  Increasing the price of domain registration 
beyond the rates that are rational in accounting for inflation 
introduces hardships on small businesses like mine, because our 
customers will abandon us if we attempt to pass these unjustifiable 
increases on to them.

I strongly oppose ICANN's proposed rate increases.

Stephen Schiff
