[Comments-org-renewal-18mar19] Proposed Renewal of .biz Registry Agreement

[Clint Evans]

>
> ICANN does not seem to recognize the difference between a legacy extension
> created with the support of the US government, that predates the existence
> of ICANN and that has millions of existing users and the brand new
> extensions that started off with a new set of rules, in particular no price
> controls, and no existing registrants. They have completely different
> characteristics, history, and ownership structure. It is not acceptable for
> ICANN to ignore these differences and to propose that they be treated the
> same.
>
> Removing price caps is not fair to .biz domain owners. Many of them have
> websites that they have used for years. If price caps are removed, the cost
> to renew their domain names may become too expensive, and they could be
> forced to give up websites that are important to them.
>
> The Uniform Rapid Suspension policy is too new and untested to apply on
> domain names that may be 10 years old or more. With the URS, the domain
> names could be taken down in a matter of days with little notice.
>
> ICANN should be doing more to protect owners of .biz domain names. Why is
> ICANN trying to remove price protections for .biz domain owners, so that
> they can be overcharged for their domain names?
