Example Citation:
"David Ronfeldt, a senior social scientist at the Rand Corporation, a think tank in Santa Monica, Calif., is an expert on information age conflicts. He thinks electronic civil disobedience as practiced by Dominguez and Wray is not benign.
'I see it somewhere between a digital sit-in and "cybotage," ' he said. 'They are trying to crash Web pages and servers. It's aggressive.' "
