Well this is something I always would do when a new song came out or a new movie that I want to watch. I would simply visit a torrent site and download free copies to my computer not realizing that one day I would download a huge software virus.
Let me tell you it was not easy and it sure was not cheap to save my computer. Since that incident, I have now learned my lesson to just pay a trusted streaming service to watch my movies or hear my favorite music.
I do not pirate software anymore, it is a risk with much unknown malware or virus that is simply too costly. Fixing this problem is expensive and time-consuming and nothing but headaches. If you think about it someone can be spying on your activity and even steal important information.

Yes, recently one of my friends faced ransomware attack as he unzip the file to get key to apply the activation, then screen display that Pay 1000$ worth BTC to this address to get your pc back to you, we were so upset, then he decide to format his pc , with his valuable academic data. So don't use unprofessional resources to apply software to your pc mate.
