Copyrights are protected for their owners, and it is not permissible to infringe upon them. The reference for determining infringement and authorization is common practice. It is permissible for someone who has bought an original copy to sell it or donate it. Researching the credibility of a website is not obligatory unless there is strong suspicion.
