Ex-parte injunction granted against multiple defendants for copyright and trademark infringement. 2. The court recognized the show's immense popularity and goodwill built over 16 years. 3. Addressed unauthorized merchandise, AI-generated content, and pornographic deep fakes. 4. Directed ISPs and platforms to block infringing content within 48 hours. Why This Matters: 1. Character Rights: The court affirmed protection for the show's characters, format, and underlying materials. 2. Digital Age Challenges: Tackles new forms of IP infringement like AI-generated content and deep fakes. 3.
