What is the risk of copyright infringement if I use file sharing software?
You are only at risk if you are sharing files that are copyright protected. Music, software, and movie files are usually protected by copyright. Unless you have personally created the file or have received written permission from the copyright holder to distribute the file, it’s probably protected by copyright and thus illegal to share. Make sure that if you are sharing files, that the shared folder does not contain any copyright protected files.
