I just wish I knew what this 4chan/b/ stuff was all about. I can't even find it on the internets to work it out for myself.

If I admit openly on the internet that I think both of them are plagues on our civilization will that invite the wrath of each into my personal space? I fear that it will...

To be fair, if you are going on 4chan you probably shouldn't have a cell phone. You should be in your parent's living room...coloring.

Bullshit. ISPs shouldn't be blocking access to any website.

Ok, let me trow this in,
I know how much we all despise 4chan, personally I never visited it except the random google images popping up.But I don't get it, we complain when Chinese gov closes down facebook and we complain when the iranian gov censors twitter.
now At&T does it for 4chan and we should take it lightly. I want the internet to be free, if a site is childish and full of pedos,
I can use my incredible internet navigation skills and not visit it.its a pattern, they always start with a site/subject that everyone on the net agree is shitty, but what will stop them from banning any site they feel is distasteful.
I'm an adult and as such, I want to decide what site I wish to visit, even if its fuckn 4chan- If they would have told me, i'd be defending 4chan ahahahGeorgesII

AT&T has confirmed that they are “currently blocking portions of the internet site 4chan.org”, but states that they are “following the practices of their policy department.”
AT&T went on to say that they did contact (or, at least, attempted to contact, they wouldn’t clarify) the owners of 4chan. They say that they have specific reasons why they blocked these parts of the site, but they would not disclose them to CentralGadget.com. AT&T states that they have requested specific things and changes from 4chan’s owners, and that 4chan has not complied.
Within hours of the blocking a report on CNN's iReport said that AT&T's CEO Randall Stephenson had died - of a cocaine overdose - apparently an attempt to destablise the AT&T stock price by 4channers.

from /b/ ...
This man is the reason 4chan is slow. He is DDOSing the website, and has been behind all the attacks.This man is also the reason AT&T and other Tier 1 backbone providers have been forced to block 4chan (read the latest news articles)... because of huge traffic spikes from his DDOS attempts ranging in the GBps range. AT&T isn't stupid enough to censor 4chan based on content.
We need to do something about this anon. Stop letting this guy do what he wants.
