I'm not sure it's accurate to call Konopka a terrorist as popular as it has been to do so in the press. According to Wikipedia's definition, "Terrorism is the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion." I don't think there was much coercion involved in Konopka's acts, and he never killed anybody or intended to (it seems), so perhaps ‘vandal’ would be a more appropriate term. Honestly, most of what he did was highly teenagerish (and almost always involved teenagers), so terrorism seems like a rather strong word. Remember, Mitnick was also called a ‘terrorist’ by the press... [[1]] ryguillian (talk) 18:32, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
