In an on-premise establishment, such as a bar or restaurant, the establishment itself is typically held liable for illegal sales of alcohol. This includes violations like serving underage patrons or over-serving intoxicated customers. Additionally, individual employees, particularly those in managerial roles, may also face legal consequences for failing to adhere to alcohol laws. Ultimately, the specific liability can depend on state laws and the circumstances surrounding the illegal sale.

If a user illegally installs software on their home computer, they are held liable. (If a child illegally installs software on a parent's computer, the parent will most likely be held liable, depending upon the age of the child.) The exact person held liable is more sketchy when applied to a company. If the company has masterminded the illegal installation of software (i.e., they told the employees to do it), they will most likely be held liable. If an employee illegally installs software on a company computer, the installer will be held liable, but the company might also be held liable, depending on the circumstances and the degree to which the company was involved. The court sentence varies, but in the U.S. it is a maximum of 5 years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine. However, the maximum sentence is usually only used in repeated offenses and extreme first offenses.
