What are the risks of buying pirated software?
The main risk is losing money that you didn't need to spend. Why buy pirated software when you can either buy the software for real and not suffer risk or a hit to your concience. The second risk is that it's still illegal to own pirated software. So you'd have lost money and still gained a criminal record if you're caught. A 3rd risk is that you're spending money on something that unless you've sampled, you potentially are getting a product you didn't want, or is of low quality. Just don't do it. Go the the piratebay.org or the shops. Both much better alternatives.

What is the term used to describe using software illegally?

Should you download updates when you have pirated software?
By choosing to update your software, it will connect with the company website and transfer information. Some of that information is a serial number used to identify and operate that particular software. When the company notices that the serial number used to update is one that has been pirated or even used on many different computers all over the world, they will have record of your personal information and could prosecute you for theft of their software. In short, it's a bad idea to use pirated software if you don't want to go to jail. It's an even worse idea to contact the company itself and tell them you are using pirated software (which is what it usually does when you update) and go to jail.
