[alac] Differential Domain Pricing
This message is from Annette Muehlberg (ALAC chair) on behalf of the ICANN At Large Advisory Committee: The At Large Advisory Committee views many aspects of the proposed contracts with great concern, including the removal of all price caps, differential pricing, and the sale of traffic data. We believe these may have significant adverse effects on at large Internet users. Since the proposed contracts were put up for comment with little advance warning, and the comment period has been the month of August when many committee members are on vacation, it has not been possible to prepare an ALAC response by August 28th. We do expect to prepare a response in coming weeks and to have it available to the board before the September 13th board meeting when, we assume in the absence of a published agenda, the board will consider these proposed contracts. |
