摘要

Hashtags arc ubiquitous and appear on storefronts, in advertisements and on packaging. In the social media context, a hashtag is a word or phrase preceded by a hash mark (#), used within a message posted on sites such as Twitter and Instagram to identify a keyword or topic of interest and facilitate a search for the message. Hashtags function to identify the subject of a message rather than the source of the message. Trending terms are now routinely followed by applications filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) by opportunistic applicants who want to gain exclusive rights to a popular term. The PTO almost always rejects such applications, however, because the designation #I)esignation fails to function as a mark. Two recent examples illustrate the PTO's analysis.
