Fresh Kill

  • ... that the 1994 film Fresh Kill is noted for its influence on hacker subculture, with a 1995 article about the film containing one of the first recorded uses of the term "hacktivism"? Source: 1 2
    • ALT1:... that the 1994 film Fresh Kill is described by director Shu Lea Cheang as "cybernoia", a term she coined to describe a future of "massive intrusions of networking technology into people's lives"? Source: 3

  • Comment: I think ALT0 is the most interesting but some may find the source dubious, so ALT1 is provided as an alternative.

  • New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. ALT0 is definitely the better hook, but I removed the wordpress source from the article as a non-RS. It's too bad you can't find other sources. Maybe these sources[1][2][3][4] would help to alter the "first mention" to the source of the term? As for ALT1, I don't understand how the film is "cybernoia"; I would think the plot of the film is. Image is fair use. QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 18:34, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: Added some higher-quality sources to the article confirming that the InfoNation article was among the first published uses of the term. Morgan695 (talk) 00:46, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
  • Excellent, thanks! ALT0 is verified and cited inline. ALT0 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 13:38, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
