Spain: Cancellation of 181 names by the registry

The French registry discovered hundreds of registrations coming from a company that did not comply with its registration rules... The same story seems to take place in Spain: The Spanish Nic, Red.es, ordered the cancellation (procedimiento de cancelación) of 181 .es names registered through Hostalia Internet, S.L., by the representative of this company.
The names, such as beckam.es, bvlagri.es, foogle.es, playstation3.es (but also many generic names such as chocolate.es), were registered for speculative purposes.
