## Summary

**This bill would create a presumption of trademark harm for unauthorized digital replicas used with goods or services.** It would amend the Trademark Act to add a rebuttable, presumption-based framework and to set limits, exceptions, and definitions for how digital replicas are handled in trademark cases. - Brands and rights holders would gain an easier path to claim confusion. Plaintiffs could invoke a rebuttable presumption that a digital replica used with goods or services is likely to cause confusion when they expressly plead it. - Creators and expressive users would keep protections.
