Unless your use qualifies as fair use

In my observations, "fair use" is often misunderstood. People violate copyrights thinking theirs is a fair use when it's not.
Is "fair use" on software even a thing?

(I know some jurisdictions have basic exceptions like "if you own software you can do what's needed to run it", but modifications?)
