I have no problem being identified with freedom geeks. I don't think lumping all 4 groups you listed as one group is a foregone conclusion. It seems to me that for the most part people recognize that you can be a member of one while not being a member of the other. While it may take a certain amount of technical skill to participate that still leaves a free, as in freedom, route open for the dissemination of information. That is, after all, the first step. You can bet that as long as a route remains open then that route will be made easier to use. I point you toward the LOIC as an example. My mother if she were so inclined to take part in a DDOS with that. Something that as recently as a year ago would have been beyond her.
