I have been a bit reluctant to complain too much about prices going up recently since in many ways it feels like a hopeless battle. But in this particular case, I don't quite understand why Verisign needs to increase the cost of this. I can't imagine the infrastructure costs are really that high for this. So I am really curious where this extra money is really going? Sure it's not much, but I would still like a justification as to why. I am also curious that I can't find any information about AWS increasing their cost for .com domains. They are still sitting at $13 for both .com and .xyz
