It's true "this is not really the place to sell your domains or indirectly
promote cyber squatting", but the rest of your post is way off base.
Do you know what a "cyber squatter" is? It is not the same as a domain
speculator. There is nothing unlawful about registering large quantities of
domain names, sitting on them, or selling them. And as far as "Internic or
whoever" goes, their profitability depends on such activity. In several
recent disputes, such a "pattern" actually worked in favor of the domain
name owner, as it established trafficking in domain names as business use
even when no websites were developed. (Of course there is currently no
apparent logic or consistency to the outcome of most such cases.)
Cybersquatting, by so-called "legal" definition involves trademark
infringement, but please don't get me started on that topic...

Subject: Cyber Squatter List
If I were a cyber squatter it would be pretty dumb to publicly list all the
domains I am holding. It shows a pattern. And even if I wasn't .... I sure
would not want to invite Internic or whoever to come knocking at my door
asking to see the intended use of each domain. They would probably
understand having a few related domains to protect my business but when they
see lists ....
This is not really the place to sell your domains or indirectly promote
cyber squatting.
