Hactivist by itself doesn't imply anti censorship. Just people who hack as a form of activism. In china there are hacktivists that are against the government and hacktivists that support the government's agenda and who hack for patriotic purposes and to avenge perceived slights against china. It's a well known phenomenon in china known as red hackers (or the Honker Union: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honker_Union http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honker_Union ) And it's far more likely that they are behind this sort of thing. People with the skills to be a member of that sort of group have no need for either of the two relatively obscure projects hosted on GitHub to circumvent the GFW.
