One other up and coming method of digital piracy is account sharing. Account sharing, or credential sharing, happens when someone shares their personal credentials with a third party. In most cases, this is not illegal however when credentials are being resold, this breaches the terms and conditions of most service providers.
This piracy method has become popular along the boom of online streaming platforms and is extremely harmful for subscription-based businesses. Currently many countries are revising important changes to copyright law , with countries such as Australia, Singapore and Dubai banning — or at least considering banning — VPNs, in an effort to limit access to torrent sites and bypassing ISP regulations. To strengthen IP law is — statistically speaking — to increase foreign investment, so it makes sense for governing bodies, particularly in developing economies, to evolve copyright legislation in line with digital advancement.
In response to its own problem, the European Commission is refining drastic, and highly-controversial, legislative changes that will enact a cross-border relationship with digital content over the whole of the EU.
The movement recognises the importance of staying current with relationships that are evolving due to the presence of the internet: for example, one major change will be to end unjustified geo-blocking across EU countries. What this will mean for piracy in Europe is still unclear at this point, but is strongly indicative of a changing environment for intellectual property online. Affected content owners are advised to stay abreast of industry developments.
Tens of millions of these kinds of infringements happen daily on internet platforms, but the site owners duck behind fair use rhetoric in order to continue profiting from the traffic driven by these uses. Meanwhile, independent rights holders, in particular, have almost no remedies available to address this ongoing problem. What they choose to do with that copyright from that point on — for example, selling or licensing it to a company that can take their little story and make it big — is entirely up to them!
Regardless of who owns the copyright, it provides the legal protection to ensure that the owner is compensated fairly. Without it, there would be little incentive to continue producing and distributing additional creative works. Intellectual property, including copyright, is the fuel of innovation in America, not only feeding our culture with arts and entertainment, but propping up advancements in science, technology, medicine, and beyond!
Because it incentivizes the expression of new ideas, a First Amendment right, while allowing the speaker to decide how and when to share them, so that the speaker will always have the incentive to speak freely.
Free speech and copyright go hand in hand. Piracy poses an existential threat to the creative works we love. It helps fund dangerous black-market criminal enterprises and devalues the contributions that make our culture diverse, progressive, and fascinating. Ending it once and for all seems like a no-brainer, and yet every day we are faced with new dissenters.

It is no different than shoplifting the same program from a computer store. People who copy digital content they do not have permission to use are digital pirates. This includes:.
Copying digital content a friend has bought - like music, pictures, videos, movies, games, books or software. Buying content from a source that stole the content and made copies to sell — like counterfeit versions of games, movies, music, books, or software — is buying stolen goods.
It's not given to you for free by someone nice because they like you and want to give you something for free, but by someone with a malicious intent, because they want to make money for themselves using the free stuff as bait. That free software, song or movie may also steal your identity, corrupt your computer, capture your financial records and passwords, turn your computer into a bot on a criminal botnet, and threaten your safety and the safety of your family.
Trust your instincts. Be suspicious of software products that do not include proof of authenticity such as original disks, manuals, licensing, services policies, and warranties.
Beware of backups. Avoid sellers offering to make backup copies. This is a clear indication the software is illegal. Steer clear of compilations.
