"Thou shalt not copy or use proprietary software for which you have not paid"

I would this commandment because I've noticed that students use pirated or unlicensed software, as well as illegal copies of textbooks, media, or tools.

High costs associated with software and educational resources.

Some students may find the prices of software or digital resources unaffordable. If easy access to cracked software or shared resources online, students would likely go the cheaper route rather than purchasing legitimate versions. I would also say the academic pressure to having to have certain tools or materials for assignments and projects is a factor that may drive students to look for pirated alternatives.

Easy access to resources

I believe educating students on available open-source software alternatives could reduce the use of pirated software while still allowing students to access necessary tools. Another step, widely used today, is schools providing students with free/discounted versions of the resources through educational accounts.
