SUMMARY 2
According to the previous document, piracy is illegal in that is involves unauthorized
copyrighting of original materials. Based on duplication, internet piracy becomes illegal when
someone changes the meaning of the original content to benefit themselves by selling. In this case,
piracy I considered burglary regardless of whether the person copyrighted the content or bought it
from someone. Another factor that defines piracy as an illegal activity is the sharing of
unauthorized records, especially sharing copyrighted content; for example, sharing downloads,
computer software, games, etc (Andy, 2018).
The document presents how different types of piracy such as internet piracy, hard-disk
loading, counterfeiting, client-server overuse, end-user piracy is experienced on daily basis. These
types of piracy are committed differently: counterfeiting involves duplication of copyrighted
material with the intention to reproduce the illegal copyrighted content, internet piracy involves
downloading files, end-user piracy occurs when someone imitates duplicated software without
approval, client-server overuse occurs when multiple users utilize a duplicated program at the same
time, and hard-disk loading occurs when an individual sells computers with piracy content such as
illegal duplicated software (Andy, 2018).
According to the authors used in the paper, copyright infringer can be sued and face civil
penalties or charged with a criminal offense. A person who commits copyright infringement may
face a civil penalty of up to $150,000 per infringement in the United States. In this case, each
illegal duplication of software is charged independently. Software piracy may face criminal
charges whereby the infringer is charged with a criminal offense. In this case, the criminal penalty
results in a fine of up to $250,000 and sentence imprisonment of up to five years (Carlsson et al,
2001).
