The distribution or use of software designed to bypass copyright protection mechanisms is a violation of copyright laws (such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in the US).
Unauthorized patches work by modifying the original binary files (executables or dynamic link libraries) of the software. They typically alter the code responsible for verifying the user's license key or connecting to the developer's authentication servers.
