Digitalization has led to an increase in copyright infringement, which is one of its negative consequences. Several aspects of digitalization contribute to this growing threat to copyright protection: Piracy – Piracy involves the unauthorized reproduction or distribution of copyrighted content, like software, books, music, and films. This infringes on the rights of the creators, performers, and artists who hold copyright over these works. In the case of software piracy, this refers to the illegal use or distribution of copyrighted software. Actions like copying, downloading, or selling software without proper authorization fall under software piracy. Other forms of piracy include using software without permission for personal or commercial purposes, producing pirated software, or sharing illegal copies through digital channels.
