@Deiru also technically downloading images from internet is copyright violation since you're copying it without author's permission.
As far as I know, making backups for personal use IS legal, at least in states. Tampering with data can be a copyright violation since copyright also gives author right to control how creation is modified (or not), but copyrights are weird and unless someone like N-word starts pursuing enforcement of those rules - nobody really cares if you cracked your game for offline play.
Pirating abandonware is also against the law technically but it's a victimless crime basically.

@hj Making backups was legal for a matter of weeks in the UK but the music industry got it overturned. I still make backups so I can preserve the original.
