You don't use proprietary software even if it was cracked and obtained through a torrent
Instead, why don't you look at free software

You learn programming languages (from easiest to hardest) (you don't have to learn them all)
Then you install a GNU/Linux distribution and learn how to use the shell (terminal)
Then you learn how to use the compiler (GCC) and any build system (CMake, GNU Make, etc.) (you will use this for compiling C/C++/whatever programming languages the compiler supports or assembling the assembly files or making automated build scripts)
Then you ascend from using proprietary software to using free software
Then you'll realize that your mind rejects proprietary software now
Then you probably get programming socks

piracy hurts not only the creator but the consumer as well
not only is it tantamount to theft, you are also discouraging creators from making more software/video games/films/what have you

if it has DRM, then I'm pirating it and fuck off, unless its proprietary software (which I wouldn't use)

so by maware do you mean software that does shady shit behind your back
sends your information off to strange places
stops you doing other things just because it feels like it
slows down your computer
bombs you with ads

Here's how to detect malware:
1. Check if you can check the source code and if the license gives you the freedoms to the source code
2. If not, then its a malware

flag checks out.
Copyright laws are holding back the progress of humanity as a whole. People are dead and 70 years after their dead, their books are still copyrighted. Monopolies arise and demand exorbitant prices. Books cost hundreds of dollars. Companies buy patents, don't build anything but hold them back for 20 years. Therefore, this tyranny should be ignored until the laws are just for consumer and seller.

You won't.

There are desktop linux distros especially developed for safe internet user experience in mind.

I myself have 12 years of Linux user experience.
The last three years of it actually counts regarding both blessed security and freedom of configuration of servers.
