  1. This isn't happening in Cuba.
  2. It's an extension from a countries ability to decide who it trades with. Lots of secondary sanctions on companies doing business with Russia, they have to pick a side.

There are no secondary sanctions on Cuba.

But this isn't a sociology class? It's not even a sociology forum. Words can have different meanings and connotations in different contexts. The academic definition of a word does not automatically trump the colloquial definition, especially not in non-academic circumstances.

I like how you didn't even spend 10 seconds to look up if there was information about the perpetrator of the Internet Archive hack.

This isn't the first time this group has done something like this and they seem to have been pretty consistent in their messaging.

The hacktivist group SN_BLACKMETA has claimed responsibility and cites US support of Israel as the motivation.
