Software consists of commercial software, public domain software, shareware and free software in legal state. The protection of the copyrights of the software consumes the universally present protective form. The rights of copyright owner are divided into owner personal right and property right. The rights of copyright owner are to be restricted while protecting them. Accordingly, our law should give definitions to act of tort and non-infringement of copyright. Practices of pirate software are the most severe acts of tort, however, our newly made regulation of software meets with conflicts in the definition of legal responsibility in the theoretical world. Free software differs from commercial software in free development and management mode, and General Public License in protecting free software differentiates from traditional protective mode of software.
