That's only because you lack imagination and don't have the first clue
about what you are talking about. And you're lying about people making
money from domain squatting - maybe you aren't aware of RFCs like 2352.

No, you stupid **** - it stands for Western Samoa. Try looking up ISO3166
if you can figure out how to use a computer search engine.
[compton ~]$ grep -c '^[A-Z][A-Z] ' domains
253
[compton ~]$ grep -c '^[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z] ' domains
10
[compton ~]$ grep -c '^[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z] ' domains
8
[compton ~]$ grep -c '^[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z] ' domains
1
[compton ~]$ grep -c '^[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z][A-Z] ' domains
2
[compton ~]$
I know using a computer is to hard for you, so here's a free translation
of the above. There are 253 two letter top domains (like FM, TV, or WS
which are for 'Federated states of Micronesia', 'Tuvalu', and 'Western
Samoa', places on the map you couldn't find without the help of a six
year old child), 10 with three including the COM you are so fascinated
with), 8 with four letters like INFO or JOBS, 1 with five, and two more
with six letters.
Obviously your company is two st00pid to know about this, and everyone
should avoid doing business with them because of your demonstrated total
stupidity. It's either that, or you are lying through your teeth.
People can avoid your company by finding a reputable registrar starting
