Such software is illegal, despite developers making the binaries available. There are other scenarios, but they usually don't affect end users directly. As far as I know, none applies to DarkTable. | |
May 24, 2019 at 11:13 | comment | added | flolilo | It would still be legal to download it from any other side. What could be illegal is to host it without permission of the authors, but never downloading it in good faith (because how would you know?). That is...as long as it is not clear that the software you downloaded was pirated (i.e. manipulated to allow the circumvention of licensing). But of course, if you really are paranoid about this, contacting the developers is the best idea. | |
