Marks identify product owners. Any approved product can utilise a trademark, such as iPod and Big Mac. McDonald's Golden Arches with "I'm Lovin' it" Apple, McDonald's, Dolce & Gabbana. Trademark piracy is the illicit use of a trademark in commerce. The owner of a registered trademark can sue for trademark infringement, whereas an unregistered trademark can only pass off.
