Why doesn’t the US government prosecute people who break copyright laws?

I’m writing a report on software piracy and it’s effects and I was wondering why the government doesn’t prosecute some of the big distributors of pirated content in order discourage it.

Do antivirus companies really prosecute? Or does compliance merely appeal to conscience?

Licenses for antivirus programs may range from 3, 5 or more computers. Most of them, however, can use one active code to operate the trial program. So virtually, you can activate as many software copies as you want. If one exceeds the legal requirement, do these antivirus companies really run after you? Would they be able to detect?
