If by squatting, you mean registering a domain name that is actually
an infringement of a trademark, and holding on to it in the hopes of
extracting extortion from the trademark holder, than I will agree with
you.

If you mean speculation, registering domain names for future value
increase and resell, then I will have to disagree.  that is a
legitimate use of and reason to register a domain name.  Just like it
is a legitimate use of and reason to purchase real estate,
automobiles, and sundry collectibles.
