hacktivist
|
|
|
|
n. [Combination of "hacker" and "activist"] A term used to describe a
|
|
hacker whose activity has overtly political aims. In the mainstream
|
|
media "hacktivist" is often used as a synonym for "computer criminal" or
|
|
"terrorist" since regimes who don't like innovation are typically
|
|
hostile towards the idea of any political change taking place -
|
|
especially if cleverly augmented by technology. |
