Heh, no argument there. Though the old AT&T was rather notorious too. Lily Tomlin's skits where she played an obnoxious, overbearing telephone operator became famous for the phrase, "We don't have to care. We're the phone company."

sbcglobal dude?

Like I said, SBC bought AT&T and took their name.

relax - The point of the tracer route posted from LA Metblogs
included the sbc global net not AT&T and believe it or not
a lot of people already knew that AT&T was purchased by SBC
back in 05'.

/b/ was responsible for the raid on Scientology's servers, and for the IRL protest. They caused Google to redirect to Scientology if you search for 'dangerous cult'. /b/ does good indeed. Another time, a guy who tortured cats was found by som Anon who read the source code of the images that guy posted. The cops caught the cat maniac thanks to Anon.

If you see a guy in a Fawke's mask, then it is Anonymous a.k.a a /b/tard.

The reason AT&T might be blocking /b/ is because there are childp0rn thread sometimes (with images). /b/ itself removes all such threads. But if you've been to /b/ for once, you'd notice replies come like 100 per second, and it's very hard for moderators themselves ro remove them.

The owner of 4chan can't do much.

AT&T is a subsidiary of its parent company which was purchased in 05' called
SBC Research reportedly for ( $ 16.5 Billion USD )and also assumed over 6.4 billion in debt. WSJ 04'- AT&T in In April 2004, AT&T was dropped from the Dow Jones industrial average, signifying its lessening importance to the nation's economy. It was replaced by another so-called "Baby Bell," Verizon Communications (Research).

Companies often use terms of service (TOS) or end-user license agreements (EULAs) to bind customers to terms they might not otherwise have agreed to, gambling that the average person won't understand the complex legal language, or have time to dig deep enough to cite objectionable elements of the agreement.

Verizon & AT&T, SBC etc., for example, inserts into its terms of service the right to "change, limit, terminate, modify at any time, temporarily or permanently cease to provide the Service or any part thereof to any user or group of users, without prior notice and for any reason or no reason.

Long story short if your a AT&T customer trying to reach 4chan / b etc NSFW
your tracerroute will look like this as posted by LA Metblogs:
