It seems like you're referencing the common phrase or concept often associated with digital piracy. Generally, a "digital pirate" might engage in the unauthorized copying and distribution of software, music, movies, games, and other digital content. However, there are certain things they typically would not steal or that wouldn't apply to being "stolen" in the traditional sense.
For example, a digital pirate might steal:
- Software applications (e.g., EXE files)
- Music tracks
- Movies
- Video games
But they typically would not "steal" personal information such as:
- Personal identities
- Financial data (unless committing identity theft)
- Confidential documents
Is there a specific context or type of content you are curious about regarding what a digital pirate might or might not steal?
