Until we start seeing hackers actually blow up computers or shut down major sectors of the economy, while issuing political demands, I refuse to call them "cyber-terrorists". It's such a stupid, meaningless, USA PATRIOT Act-esque piece of fluffy propaganda. Not every criminal is a terrorist. Nor every airline passenger, but I won't even get into that. Now, that's not to say that some of these groups wouldn't do those things if they could. I can see a significant proportion of Anonymous deciding to take out the NYSE in retaliation for some bill or other, if they had the capability. Still, that's not terrorism, just crime.
