  2. Cyberactivism, Cyberterrorism Cyberactivism is a means by which advanced information and communication technologies, e.g. e-mail, list-serv, and the www of the Internet, are used by individuals and groups to communicate with large audiences, galvanizing individuals around a specific issue or set of issues in an attempt to build solidarity towards meaningful collective actions (From Network Publics) Manuel Castells argue that hacker culture is the fundamental part of the network and internet culture. In the beginning, hackers were a dedicated group of talented and innovative programmers committed to make a better and more efficient use of Internet. Online activism is non-disruptive, haktivism is disruptive, while cyberterrorism causes “great harm” or “severe economic damage”.

  3. Research on Cyberactivism The National Infrastructure Protection Center (NIPC) report of 2001 concluded that the number, intensity, and impact of cyberactivism will increase. The report also claimed that the primary goal of cyberprotesting will shift from embarrassing the target entity or calling attention to a cause to intentional destruction of information. Institute for Security Technology Studies show that cyberattacks immediately accompany physical attacks, cyberattacks are increasing in volume, and they are attracted to high value targets. Yet IT is not totally integrated into “terrorism” and mass disruption.
