HACKTIVISM HAS TWO FACES

Anyone can become a member of Anonymous as long as they wear the mask. And they can defend a cause anywhere and at any time. The mask is a symbol of unity.

  • Unity
  • Mask
  • Anyone
  • Anywhere
  • Anonymous

However, the mask is also a symbol of fear and they use it to hide their identity.

  • Identity
  • Fear

Hacktivism has two sides:The legal one with activism including peaceful sit-ins or protests (The Million Mask March).

And the illegal one with hacking to withdraw secret information.

  • Legal
  • Illegal
  • Protests
  • To withdraw secret information

Next

Hacktivists risk their lives to put forward a political (Government), economic (Bankers) or social issue.

They reveal the hidden truth while endangering lives. (others or their own)

Hacking is illegal. But activism and being a whistleblower isn’t.

Hacktivists promote free speech, justice and advocate change. While leaking dangerous information/data to cause this change.

  • Activism
  • Whistleblower
  • Free speech
  • Justice
  • Endangering lives
  • Hacktivists
  • Change
  • Hacking
  • Hidden truth

Next

While hacktivists may argue that their actions are justified by a desire to fight for a noble cause, it is important to remember that the use of hacking techniques to gain unauthorized access to computer systems and networks is illegal in most countries. Those who engage in hacktivism may face legal consequences, and their actions may also have unintended consequences that can harm society as a whole.

  • Justified
  • Cause
  • Fight
