Although we are in the era of cloud computing, Software as a Service (SaaS) and mobile apps, the software market still lives with the piracy of computer programs using CDs and DVDs as a means of distribution. This Wednesday (3/12) ABES (Brazilian Association of Software Companies), will destroy 2,1 million media with illegal software to mark the National Day to Combat Piracy.

The material is the result of search and seizure operations carried out by the authorities in recent years and was stored under the entity's responsibility until it received judicial authorization to be destroyed. The destruction will be carried out by the company Plasnoi Comércio de Plásticos, through a grinding mill that breaks up the material for recycling.
