[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] AGAINST Proposed Amendment 3 - .COM agreement

[John McGready]

Hi,

I'm writing in opposition to proposed amendment 3 for the following reasons:

1) Assigning Verisign the .COM registry is nothing more than a backdoor for
them to monopolize the .COM domain registry business, which would be
disastrous, given that the .COM TLD is the lifeblood of the Internet as we
now know it.

2) Even with freezes after every two years, a 7% annual increase is
unnecessarily inflationary at best and craven profiteering at worst.

3) The first two factors combine to create a chilling effect on commerce
and expression.

Thank you for your time.

John McGready
