[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Pricehike on .com

[Þór Hallgrímsson]

The proposed changes that will result in price of domains names is unfair,
undemocratic and will undermine trust in top level domain names. Why risk
buyin a top level domain and build a brand on it when it can be expected
that prices can rise consideraly without warning or consultation? This will
drive individuals, businesses and organizations to social media and/or
subdonains where they can get a presence cheaply or for free, that will
become the norm.
Besides, there is nothing stopping entrepreneurs or governments of e.g.
China in building a second internet with its own nameservers, its own
'icann,' for people to put up their domains, and they will if its cheaper.

Sincerely,
Thor
