Squatting (Australian history)
"Squatting" is a historical Australian term that referred to someone occupying a large tract of Crown land to graze livestock. Initially often having no legal rights to the land, squatters became recognised by the colonial government as owning the land by being the first (and often the only) European settlers in the area. Eventually, the term "squattocracy", a play on "aristocracy", came into usage to refer to squatters and the social and political power they possessed.
Examples of use of cyber-squatting
1. The U.N. intellectual property agency WIPO said on Thursday that an Internet dispute body it runs had ruled in Ronaldinho‘s favor in a cyber–squatting case.
2. To avoid cyber–squatting, ICANN says those who register a new extension will have to prove they have a viable reason for it, and trademark names will not be auctioned.
