Freeman Wins Rights to Name in Cyberspace

An AP newswire article posted to Yahoo! News reports that:

Academy Award-winning actor Morgan Freeman won control of the Internet domain name www.morganfreeman.com in a ruling issued Thursday by a United Nations panel.

Arbitrators for the World Intellectual Property Organization ordered the transfer of the domain name to the American actor, who had complained that it was being used in bad faith to divert Internet traffic to a commercial search engine.
