I think this can be explained with Swedish journalists actually talking straight to net activists before they write articles. Personally I have been soaked with calls from different news media to explain what the DDoS attacks were all about, how they functioned and how they can be interpreted as political action.

It is not an easy task to explain nor to write about, but I think there has been much progress. Noone except corporate "security experts" and random loud "commentators" use words such as "terrorists" or "hackers" in an unreflected way anymore.

So, I think that the different activist communities did a good job this time in informing the public opinion and the media.

Also, this post is part of such a process. Excellent writing!
