I love these campaigns. You get to play to the home crowd, wave your flag and come off as idealistic and patriotic. But I suspect that the real reason behind most of these scheme is revenue. If you score a TLD you can rake in serious money from trademark holders: disney.cym, google.cym, ford.cym, etc. They are more or less required to buy them to maintain their defense of trademark, and you can name your price. That's why the guy doesn't care if it's ".cym" or ".whateverthefuck". The only customers will be some government entities, the tourism board, and the Forbes 1000.
