The illegal copying and use of proprietary/copyrighted software is called software piracy. It refers to the act of using, copying, distributing, or selling software without proper permission or a valid license. It is a form of intellectual property theft and is illegal in most countries. The practice deprives software developers and companies of their rightful revenue and can lead to the spread of malware and other security risks.
