[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] roll back .com decision

[Rene Terhorst]

Hello,

This email is written on my personal behalf, not from my company which I am using now the email from.

I do not agree with the contract on Verisign. I do have some .com domains, which are just for me and my family, or for the fun.
At the time I got them, then these levels were only available (.net/.com/.org).

Your policy mentions: A fundamental part of ICANN’s Mission<https://www.icann.org/en/resources/policy/mission> is to coordinate policy development related to the Internet’s system of unique identifiers.

As internet organization you should facilitate, without being commercial. Your website states  that you are transparent:

So why would you need $ 20.000.000 from Verisign for the non-profit organization? And promoting competition is done through making thing cheaper and allowing multiple companies to set prices for .com domains. Not giving one commercial company all power.
Also you state that you are transparent. But I cannot find why and how the deal was made and were this money would be spent on.

So for now I do not trust this deal. And my opinion is that this deal should be cancelled.

Kind regards,
Rene Terhorst
