I hope 4chan ends up the victor as I'm vehemently opposed to any form of censorship I just don't see it happening. They should bring it up through the legal means rather than wailing around and acting like Seniors on the last day of High School.

4chan has no chance against a Corporation as powerful as ATT, hence the suggestion to bring this up through legal means.

4chan will end up as the victor I bet...

Just because they're probably more motivated and tech savvy than at&t is. I wouldn't put it past 4chan to just hack into at&t, and get themselves back "on the internet"

R U FOR RELA

Seriously, they're (albeit heavyhandedly) protecting their bottom line by shutting down a site that's being DDOS'd. Don't overreact.

Really? A Multi-Billion dollar Corporation that controls a quarter of America's communications infrastructure, vs. a million nerds with no structural organization planning to act out a bunch of hack schemes thinking they actually have some "skillz". Please, the only way for this to end and for it to be resolved correctly is to use the legal system because this is blatant censorship. The day America allows China-like censorship is a day I do not want to see.

Scientology wasn't even directly threatening 4chan. Not only is this action provocative, it's completely against the ideology of 4chan.

Over-reacting to a normal ISP response of taking down sites that are hit with massive DDoS-attacks until they are stopped? Sounds like 4chan to me.

I don't think you know what you are talking about.

TO EVERYONE SAYING THEY TOOK IT DOWN BECAUSE OF DDOS ATTACKS

could u pls explain the rational behind this?

how do the ddos attacks against 4chan effect at&t subscribers? how does it effect anyone other than the servers that host 4chan? your reasoning makes no sense.
