If I buy a peice of land along the freeway and never do anything with it, is that illegal? Of course not. It's no different with domain names. I bought the domain name, and I can do what I want with it. If it's that much of a problem slap something up there really quick or redirect to something you already have online.

I agree with you but unfortunately there is cybersquatting laws.

If it is deemed you registered the domain in bad faith and intended to profit by leveraging a trademarks or high traffic website you lose. Not only the domain but a few bucks too.
