I received an email that Porkbun .com domains will increase pricing from $11.08 to $11.81. They stated that all registrars will increase their price not only Porkbun. An early renewal before November 1 can save you money.

Porkbun explains that it's a periodic increase. Domain prices would only increase in the future apparently while I question the reality of it. But I wonder if this increase has to do with AI or how the idea goes against law of supply and demand.
