[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] "Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement"

[Alex K]

Hi ICANN team,

Please amend your proposal to allow Verisign raise fees for .COM domains.
The domains are already expensive as they are for individuals and small
businesses. Internet and IT have always demonstrated economies of scale.

While I understand that there are costs involved to maintain the security
of it, Verisign should be addressing them through innovation and by
lowering the expenses for domain registration, and then using those
efficiency gains to drive other important goals. If other companies can do
it, Verisign has no excuse. Only companies who have monopoly and do not
innovate allow themselves to raise prices.

Raising prices and not innovating is not good for consumers or 21st century
society when we should be internet more accessible for people. Owning a
.COM domain should not be a luxury, and therefore any price increases is a
step in the wrong direction.

Thank you,
Alex Kamotsky
