Software pirates are individuals who illicitly distribute applications like Microsoft Office, popular games (e.g., Fortnite), and productivity software (e.g, Adobe Photoshop) free of charge and usually over peer-to-peer services.

In fact, this has become such a problem that developers have begun to point this out in Apple’s own developer forums. Subversion on this level has the potential to impact one of macOS’s first layers of defense: Gatekeeper.
