Is $10 the magic number for 'orgs'? Say the PE raised it to $20, how bad would that be? If it were $5 and doubled to $10 still as bad? Why is $10 the just amount? What about orgs that can't afford that?
How high is it ok for the PE to go on fees? Why? (Tone is to point out how arbitrary this all is, genuinely curious otherwise)
- dpau 7y agoGiven the history of private equity in hiking up drug prices, I'm guessing the answer to "what is the magic number" is whatever number generates the most profit, regardless of what is just or whether small organizations can afford it.
- WilliamEdward 7y agoThey can raise it as high as they want. Yes, it is bad.
- rocqua 7y agoThey can hike without limit, and they can target the hike. So they could make wikipedia pay 10000 a year when they need to renew. If they had all domains at the same price, price hikes would be much less of an issue.
