To understand my above statement about spam and squatting, one may want to
look at the Namecoin block explorer, which paints a fairly clear picture about
why Dot Bit has such a large number of domains.

e.g. The recent "beanie.bit" domain was registered, marked as "for sale," and
pointed to a porn site. While I have no problem with this in general (though I
think it's foolish), I don't feel that the OpenNIC project should worry about
acting as a gateway to it.

You convert Bitcoins to Namecoins and use Namecoins to "purchase" these domains, right?
