      Solution

      Section 66F defines cyber terrorism as acts committed using computer resources with intent to threaten the unity, integrity, security or sovereignty of India or to strike terror in people. Ordinary hacking or obscene publication does not amount to cyber terrorism. Hence, option C is correct.
