Contrary to popular belief, malware persistence (at least on Linux) doesn't require root privileges
And since you're probably running the OS on a single-user setup, chances are it won't even need to escalate privileges to do anything

and if there's not and I'm just pirating a very very comfy piece of software from an asshole developer who overcharges ?
I didn't have to type in any admin password. The only thing was that I allowed it accessibility privileges in the privacy settings.

well shit. How would I know if the pirated software had any exploits added? I also got little snitch installed but that didn't detect anything suspicious either..

Create a separate user account and write an apparmor/selinux policy or put it into a container/VM.

if you launch a script
anything could happen

To my understanding, Little Snitch is merely a glorified firewall, in which case it most likely won't detect more advanced methods of data exfiltration (e.g. over DNS, iodine-style, http://code.kryo.se/iodine/)
Short of comparing the cracked binary to the original and actually looking at the changes for yourself, there's not much you can do to check. If you downloaded it from a relatively reputable source, you should be fine.
