Hacktivists or Cyberterrorists? The Changing Media Discourse on 
Hacking by Sandor Vegh

This paper scrutinizes the language of government reports and news 
media sources to shed light on their role in forming a negative image 
of politically motivated hacking in general, and online political 
activism, in particular. It is argued that the mass media's portrayal 
of hacking conveniently fits the elite's strategy to form a popular 
consensus in a way that supports the elite's crusade under different 
pretexts to eradicate hacking, an activity that may potentially 
threaten the dominant order.
