Resumo

This article aims to analyze the conception of hacktivism, its differences in relation to digital activism and crimes committed in digital media. It also seeks to analyze possible appoach with the practices of civil disobedience. Academic texts were used as well as reports of participants in hacktivism and digital activism to delineate the area of action of each movement. This article discusses how hacker and digital activism, although similar, have essential diferences, making them different movements. We also analyzed the traditional media approach in dealing with legitimate political manifestations as crimes, although similarities only occur in the techniques used. Through this distinction, lawmakers can classify the kind of action taken more precisely, thus avoiding abuses and injustices against activists.
