The penalties for being proven guilty of illegal decompilation can vary depending on the country and its copyright laws. In some countries, copyright infringement can result in fines, jail time, or both. For instance, in the United States, the penalties for copyright infringement can include fines of up to $150,000 per work infringed and/or imprisonment for up to 5 years for first-time offenders. Repeat offenders can face higher fines and longer jail sentences.

If a decompilation project involves distributing copyrighted material, like game assets or ROMs, without permission from the copyright holder, the penalties can be even more severe. Distributing copyrighted material without permission can result in both civil and criminal penalties.

It's essential to understand the legal risks involved in decompilation projects and to obtain legal advice before engaging in any activities that could potentially infringe on copyright laws.
