  • Well actually already when you have finished downloading it - is considered illegal act, but that's only in USA and in France. Otherwise, if you are lucky enough not to live in those countries then nobody can catch you. Only program's self-defense mechanism can trigger self-destruct. But Photoshop doesn't have that.
  • I was surprised to find that getting caught using pirated software is much easier than I had imagined. Your internet service provider sees everything you download. Technically, they would need to have some evidence already that you are pirating software before monitoring everything you download, but its a real possibility. I would suggest that the person just remove the program from their system and either buy a legitimate copy, or download an open source image editor. For some reason, many people don't realize that Photoshop isn't the only photo-editing program in existance.
