[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] More specific information and more transparent process needed

[CJ O'Reilly]

To whom it may concern,

I am deeply concerned by the potential for the amendment to balloon 
pricing in an unreasonable way.

I recognize the need for infrastructure and the importance of this 
service, but I am very concerned about the accountability and scope of 
the proposed changes.

I would like to see more specificity and continued process for price 
increases, rather that creating space for ballooning.

The internet is an important resource for freedom of information and 
speech, and economic concerns like even the modest price of a domain can 
be a significant impediment to people whose voices are often least 
heard. Furthermore, capitalization and monetization of the foundation of 
this information resource is a significant liability to the culture of 
internet and frankly, humanity, considering the globalized network we 
exist in. Leveraging this resource as a tool for profit would be a 
disservice to the stewardship of it and could very easily be a slippery 
slope.

Please consider these factors and creating more systems for 
accountability and review before decisions are made that may impact the 
accessibility of domain names and the fabric of the internet.

Thank you,

CJ
