Default Can we buy a TLD ?

I heard someone with "the man who owns the internet" fame, has aquired the entire .cm TLD. so whoever types a domain with a .cm at the end, it goes to that guys website and he earns revenue! I wonder how is it done? I have tried to do a lot of searches in google, but couldnt work it out.

Is it really possible to own a whole TLD ?
