If this is true, then why isn't the domain registered to anyone right now? I would think it should be registered to Morgan Freeman at this point.
I imagine that this would set a precedent to protect actors (and other artists) name(s) on the Internet, rather than each having to file a case each time.
He is a pretty good actor, by the way. I really enjoyed his peformance in 'The Shawshank Redemption'.
