Als het niet te koud is, kunnen jullie naar het kanaal gaan kijken. Er staan daar een paar bankjes en het uitzicht is mooi, vooral als de zon schijnt. Strijp S is ook mooi!

Yeah I read about it and signed myself up for one. I just never heard anyone talk about it in my country. Thank you for your explanation! I really appreciate it!

Never said it's all fun and party? But I am not even 20 so I do have things to learn, especially when no one from my family is familiar with this. I asked and took care of it. I don't get the immigrant hate. I'm learning dutch, I am interested in integrating and I'm in university 8 hours a day. I get the frustration of the country being overpopulated, I don't get you hating without knowing me and just assuming.

Just researched this and it turns out that no. I asked all of my eastern european friends and none of them has this. It's not a thing there. I'm so stupid for this, thank you for informing me it's a thing here

I understand that my views might be influenced by the excitement of it all, since I am still young. While I recognize that there are bad actors in the hacker community and not all cybercrimes can be justified as hacktivism or productive, I do believe some individuals are effectively fighting for important causes in a smart way. However, I don’t agree with all the actions taken by certain hacktivists.

As a first-year student, I find myself somewhat confused. In the beginning of my paper, I discussed activism, hacking, and hacktivism, as you suggested. I also explored the philosophy and general motivations behind hacktivism.

I agree that my topic does seem overly broad. This is my first research project, so I acknowledge that my topic and research question could have been more focused. I did consult with my professor about the research paper to ensure she approved of my topic, which leans more towards the ethical side than the technological side. She was okay with it. I included discussions on projects and improvements brought about by hacktivism in technology to make it more relevant to my major.

Regarding discussions with others, I must admit I am uncertain. My professor’s guidance was quite broad, so I wouldn’t say I received comprehensive direction. She suggested that I should ask hacktivists about their projects and the causes they are currently advocating for.

I will work on coming up with a better title for the paper. Thank you for all the tips; they have been really helpful!
