[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3

[Gwen Mullinix]

Hello,

I am strongly against Proposed Amendment 3.

The price increases for .COM domains are excessive, especially because they
can perpetually increase on a 6 year cycle. A corporation might have no
problem paying registration and renewal fees, or could afford to lock-in
their wholesale price for 10 years, but a small business owner will rarely
have that luxury.

It is also concerning that Verisign will give $20 million dollars to ICANN
with little explanation of how the money will be spent, and no mention of
any regulatory oversight to ensure the funds are not mishandled.

In closing, Proposed Amendment 3 does not benefit nor protect the public --
only the organizations directly involved in the proposal. It should not be
adopted.

Sincerely,
Gwen Mullinix
