is a kind of media and information hacking/warfare/art directed against an ever more intrusive technoculture which strives to manufacture consent through symbol manipulation.

Dery (1993) defines culture jamming as 'media hacking, information warfare, terror-art, and guerrilla semiotics, all in one.' It is 'directed against an ever more intrusive, instrumental technoculture whose operant mode is the manufacture of consent through the manipulation of symbols' (p.5).
