Piracy is the act of stealing food from software developers' mouths. If you are a Windows user, you are likely already a pirate. The irony of software piracy is the fact that Free Software is often easier to attain, better, and respects the user's freedom.
About
Users of public trackers such as The Pirate Bay are infected with malicious software. These users often install virus protection software and proceed to ignore its warnings. As a result, these users become members of a botnet.
Also, it is important to know that all users on the internet are being spied on by organizations such as the NSA and Google.
Recommendations
If you are intent on stealing software, at least do it right. The following recommendations are merely for entertainment purposes and do not in any way condone the piracy of software:
- Use a private tracker
- Use a blocklist
- Consider using a VPN service
