Read full decision. Generated by ChatGPT:

The court granted an interim injunction pursuant to various Acts ordering the defendants to cease infringing activities related to certain website domains and social media accounts. The injunction directed the defendants to take down infringing material and cease operating specified websites and social media accounts. The court also imposed a domain blocking order on third-party respondents, requiring them to block access to the infringing domains for a period of two years. The plaintiff demonstrated efforts to identify the defendants, sending cease and desist letters, making requests for disclosure, and filing complaints, with no success. The court found that the plaintiff satisfied the requirements for a domain blocking order to allow time for further proceedings, including establishing any connections to the defendants and potential intervener status. Third-party respondents either consented to or did not oppose the relief sought.
