.org Proposed Contract
To the Board of Directors of ICANN, I am writing to note my strong objection to the terms and conditions of the proposed contracts for the .org TLD. In particular the elimination of price caps, the introduction of tiered pricing and the strengthening of presumptive renewal are terms that are not in the best interest of registrants and will hinder the growth and development of online businesses. I strongly urge to you to reject these contracts and re-start the negotiation process taking into account the upcoming recommendations of your own policy committee (GNSO) and to advocate strongly for the interests of the broad internet community to produce a balanced and fair contract. Respectfully, Debra Hutchinson |
