Have you not heard of Distributed Denial of Secrets?

Large entities are hacked and leaked constantly, it's just not reported on much in the mainstream press:

We live in an age where public outcry gets a site booted off the net, and just prior, some hacker siphons up every bit of data about it's users.

Sounds like hacktivism to me.
