              Sure I would, then I'd neatly dispose of the body in the nearest river...

                        What happens when the line that has been drawn moves past a site you DO approve of?

                                  If true, it brings upon the first major strike in the net neutrality wars. And they picked a site that would probably fight back the hardest. Not smart in my opinion.

                                        Full story:

                                        The original block was merely to stop a DDoS attack. It's quite possible that it happened automatically.

                                        The block was lifted about an hour ago.

                                        Now, 4chan is all but down because the entire internet is checking to see if it's really true - basically forming a natural DDoS attack.

                                          I can't reach it from my Comcast cable, either.

                                          Can't reach it from one of my servers either, times out on
                                          15 208.175.175.22 (208.175.175.22) 47.827 ms 47.823 ms 47.625 ms

                                          That ip is owned by Savvis, not ATT. Not sure what's going on.

                                            Appears that ATT is in fact blocking 4chan:

                                            Sunday, July 26, 2009

                                            It's come to our attention that AT&T is filtering/blocking img.4chan.org (/b/ & /r9k/) for many of their customers. There is no remedy at this time.

                                            If you've been affected, I would advise you call or write customer support and corporate immediately.

                                            UPDATE: Some coverage on TechCrunch, Digg, reddit, and Google News. Also, note that AT&T has yet to contact us.

                                              If they'll goto war with the Scientologists, I'm sure they'll go at it with AT&T too

                                                4chan is a force to be reckoned with.

                                                          You need to get out more often. And "boxxy" needs to get off the webcam and get out too..

                                                                      My life got flipped-turned upside down
                                                                      And I liked to take a minute
                                                                      Just sit right there

                                                                      In west Philadelphia born and raised
                                                                      On the playground was where I spent most of my days
                                                                      Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
                                                                      And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
                                                                      When a couple of guys
                                                                      Who were up to no good
                                                                      Started making trouble in my neighborhood
                                                                      I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
                                                                      She said 'You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel Air'

                                                                      I begged and pleaded with her day after day
                                                                      But she packed my suite case and send me on my way
                                                                      She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket.
                                                                      I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well kick it'.

                                                                      First class, yo this is bad
                                                                      Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass.
                                                                      Is this what the people of Bel-Air living like?
                                                                      Hmmmmm this might be alright.

                                                                      But wait I hear they're prissy, wine all that
                                                                      Is Bel-Air the type of place they send this cool cat?
                                                                      I don't think so
                                                                      I'll see when I get there
                                                                      I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel-Air

                                                                      Well, the plane landed and when I came out
                                                                      There was a dude who looked like a cop standing there with my name out
                                                                      I ain't trying to get arrested
                                                                      I just got here
                                                                      I sprang with the quickness like lightning, disappeared

                                                                      I whistled for a cab and when it came near
                                                                      The license plate said 'FRESH' and it had dice in the mirror
                                                                      If anything I can say this cab is rare
                                                                      But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air'

                                                                      I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8
                                                                      And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'
                                                                      I looked at my kingdom
                                                                      I was finally there
