Description | We can identify an effort to relocate the terms hacking, hack etc., into the software studies academic discourse. We can interpret the shift, analogically to the meaning transformations of the term cyborg in 90s, as a fruitful and effective employment of the term within an effort to critically reflect activities of information and communication technologies users on a scale from rather conservative consumption to the most radical actions. |
