... and not only that, if such a system was in place, and I faithfully
participated day after day, playing by the rules and occasionally beating
the odds and receiving the odd mediocre domain name, after I accumulated 10
or 100 or 1000, someone would still claim I was improperly squatting on a
"public" resource.
Considerably worse than so-called "cybersquatting" is someone telling me
what domain names I should or should not be allowed to have, or what I
should or should not be doing with them.
