Software
piracy refers to the unauthorized duplication and use of computer
software. Software developers work hard to develop solid software
programs. If those applications are pirated and stolen, the software
developers will often be unable to generate the revenue required to
continue supporting and expanding those applications. The effects of
software piracy impact the entire global economy. The reduced revenues
often divert funding from product development, and result in less
research and less investment in marketing. In 2007, economists
indicated that software piracy cost the industry $39.6 billion.
