Jehovah's Witnesses feel that someone has become an "apostate" if they were once a baptized member of their religion that not only left the religion, but actively and purposely sought to either make the religion appear evil, or draw others out of the religion as well. They feel this is the act of sinning against the holy spirit as described at Matthew 12:31,32. If someone identifies themselves as a former member of the religion, and is actively trying to turn other people away from the religion, that would be a way to identify what Jehovah's Witnesses would consider an apostate.
