Hacktivists have launched a campaign of electronic civil disobedience to coincide with the demonstrations against the Republican National Convention. Joining millions of protesters who took to the streets of New York to say no to the Bush agenda, hacktivists have taken to the net to explore a new medium of protest: the internet. Various tactics include staging financial disruption against major credit card corporations, disrupting various right-wing fascist groups, and an electronic sit- in against Republican websites.
