One time I broke copyright laws were when I was tying to download a music song for free without knowing that I had broken the copyright laws. My actions might have affected the author or publisher and other people who participated in making the song because if your getting a song for free that means your going to lose money as the publisher of the song and for the other people who have worked on the music. The steps I might take next time to be more legal and fair are trying to pay for my own music from the publisher, to inform the website published to take the music off and finally to try to inform the author to do it themselves and tell the website published to take the music
