Apps, much like computer software, can be pirated and this is one of the reasons why some smartphone owners jailbreak their phones or turn to third-party app websites for their downloads, instead of accessing the official ones. Apart from the possibility of getting infected by malware through pirated apps and third-party websites, downloading pirated apps is also considered illegal (in case it wasn't obvious already) and it seems that the US Department of Justice along with the FBI have shut down three domains that have been associated with the distribution and pirating of Android apps.
