Answer 1

Answer:

d. trademark dilution.

Explanation:

-Cybersquatting. is when someone registers a domain with the name of an organization or brand to sell it for a higher price.

-Typosquatting is when someone creates a website with a similar name of a well-known site so people will go to their website when they make a mistake writing the address.

-Trademark infringement is when someone uses a trademark on a similar product without permission from the owner and this can cause confusion to the customers.
