Excerpt:
A proposed deal that would let VeriSign Inc double the
wholesale price of a .com domain by 2012 is coming
under increasing amounts of criticism from consumers
and from the company's own channel.
Under a deal inked in October, VeriSign agreed to
settle its lawsuits against ICANN, the Internet Corp
for Assigned Names and Numbers, in exchange for a new
.com registry contract that allows it to raise prices.
The deal enables VeriSign to raise prices by 7% a year
starting in January 2007 through to when the contract
ends in 2012. If VeriSign took advantage of this every
year, the price of a .com would double from its
current $6 by the end of the term.
