Legal Question in Technology Law in Arizona
Copying Software
I'm curious to know if it's illegal to make a copy of a software cd(i.e. a computer game) and then give it away to someone else. Any information on the laws of this is much appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Copying Software
It is illegal to make the copy and it is illegal to give that illegal copy away. The copier and the receiver are both infringers. See http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/106.html and http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/501.html
