From The Register:
US Congress whips up ‘cyber menace’ again

The early usages of the word *I* recall from my IT days were entirely withing warnings put out by government agencies warning breathlessly about cyber-armageddon, like that silly made for TV Y2K movie shown in 1999.

Evidence, please.

2) Even if there were, the term is inaccurate and has the effect that Newspeak was supposed to achieve; namely making dissent impossible.

Orwell’s Newspeak came from government officials mandating such change.

Peter Schiff’s campaign is using a societal term that has evolved naturally without government mandate.

See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberterrorism

“Cyberterrorism can also be defined much more generally, for example, as ‘The premeditated use of disruptive activities, or the threat thereof, against computers and/or networks, with the intention to cause harm or further social, ideological, religious, political or similar objectives. Or to intimidate any person in furtherance of such objectives.’ This broad definition was created by Kevin G. Coleman of the Technolytics Institute. The term was coined by Barry C. Collin.”

Relax a little.
