...And now they're censoring the internet.

The ban is lifted now, but it's still a scary thought that this is what we're moving to. (Even though the site they blocked is pure shit anyway)
Thanks EPOTTSIII!

    Net neutrality is not a scary thing, for that is what we all should be fighting to retain.

    And in the end, 4chan and AT&T gave logical reasons for what happened and it wasn't censorship. But, I love how fast folks mobilized to let AT&T know that censorship of the internet by an ISP will NOT be tolerated.

    Yeah, lol...I think I thought net neutrality WAS internet censorship...I should really not post when i have to leave for work in 3 minutes.

    And I'm not too convinced on their reasons, even though they do hold water. A lot of customers were already threatening to change ISPs, and the article says they were trying to attack AT&T's share price, so I wouldn't be surprised if AT&T was just trying to cover their tracks.
    Thanks EPOTTSIII!
