Should the use of hacktivists by a country against enemy organizations be considered an act of war? Why or why not? How about th

Artyom0805 [142]

Explanation:

Hacktivist comes from the combination of two words --- "Hack" and " Activism" .

Hacktivist perform hacktivism that means they make use of technology and knowledge to support as well as promote the political agenda and any kind of change in the social event.

Cyberterrorism, on the other hand uses internet and technology and conduct terrorism and other anti national activities like to coerce the societies or the governments in pursuit of their goals which are religious, ideological or political.

While Hacktivism is used for a political cause, and is done in a peaceful manner; whereas cyber terrorism tries to grab the attention of the public through their aggressive ways, specifically by putting fear among the public.

But there is no instance of any person of getting killed by a cyber-attack or cyber terrorism. The larger damage is however done by those viruses or malware which gets into other persons computers or enemy organization computer system and weakens them and steals information and data. They damage and harm the economy in a larger scale.

When Chinese government first introduced the Trojan virus on the computer systems of their opponents abroad, is that can be called as Hacktivism? In essence, this act may be called as cyber terrorism and not hacktivism. Because the Chinese Government intend to cause major economic damage and harm to their opponents or enemy organization by targeting the software giants in the West.

These companies crashed and and many left jobless and unemployment, they caused economic problems and damage to the technologies. However, the Chinese Government's perspective on this is that they addresses such a thing as hacktivism as it advocates the state censorship by filtering the politically or the socially-unacceptable ideas in their e-mail.

Thus, the answer is relative as to whose perspective we are looking. Either we are taking the perspective of the Chinese government or that of the enemy organization which is affected by the act of the state censorship and targeting the Western software giants.

Cyberterrorism will somehow become a serious threat to the society when people adept at hacking will sympathize and also align with terrorists activities and cause. It has become appealing since some of computer programs have the features that are easily exploited and conducive for committing cyber terrorism.

Answer:

maxSum = FindMax(numA, numB) + FindMax(numY, numZ);

The maxSum is a double type variable which is assigned the maximum of the two variables numA numB PLUS the maximum of the two variables numY numZ using FindMax function. The FindMax() method is called twice in this statement one time to find the maximum of numA and numB and one time to find the maximum of numY numZ. When the FindMax() method is called by passing numA and numB as parameters to this method, then method finds if the value of numA is greater than that of numB or vice versa. When the FindMax() method is called by passing numY and numZ as parameters to this method, then method finds if the value of numY is greater than that of numZ or vice versa. The PLUS sign between the two method calls means that the resultant values returned by the FindMax() for both the calls are added and the result of addition is assigned to maxSum.

Explanation:

This is where the statement will fit in the program.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

double FindMax(double num1, double num2) {

double maxVal = 0.0;

if (num1 > num2) { // if num1 is greater than num2,

maxVal = num1; // then num1 is the maxVal. }

else {

maxVal = num2; // num2 is the maxVal. }

return maxVal; }

int main() {

double numA;

double numB;

double numY;

double numZ;

double maxSum = 0.0;

maxSum = FindMax(numA, numB) + FindMax(numY, numZ);

cout << "maxSum is: " << maxSum << endl; }

Lets take an example to explain this. Lets assign values to the variables.

numA = 6.0

numB = 3.0

numY = 4.0

numZ = 9.0

maxSum =0.0

maxSum = FindMax(numA, numB) + FindMax(numY, numZ);

FindMax(numA,numB) method call checks if numA>numB or numB>numA and returns the maximum of the two. Here numA>numB because 6.0 is greater than 3.0. So the method returns numA i.e. 6.0

FindMax(numY, numZ) method call checks if numY>numZ or numZ>numY and returns the maximum of the two. Here numZ>numY because 9.0 is greater than 4.0. So the method returns numZ i.e. 9.0

FindMax(numA, numB) + FindMax(numY, numZ) this adds the two values returned by the method FindMax for each call.

FindMax returned maxVal from numA and numB values which is numA i.e. 6.0.

FindMax returned maxVal from numY and numZ values which is numZ i.e. 9.0.

Adding these two values 9.0 + 6.0 = 15

So the complete statement FindMax(numA, numB) + FindMax(numY, numZ) gives 15.0 as a result.

This result is assigned to maxSum. Hence

maxSum = 15

To see the output on the screen you can use the print statement as:

cout<<maxSum;

This will display 15
