Freenom provides domain registration services for many top-level domains, including .cf, .ga, .gq, .ml and .tk. The registrar offers free domain registration on these domains, but reserves the right to return and redirect domains… sometimes to adult sites.
Before the lawsuit, Freenom accounted for more than half of all new phishing sites. However, according to the news following the lawsuit, the number of phishing domains owned by Freenom decreased. As for the price for them.
The full impact of the lawsuit is yet to be determined, as different spam and phishing data sources have different policies regarding site definition.
