Is anyone else not using AT&T having problems with even getting on 4chan?
[QUOTE=sp00k!;16299839]Is anyone else not using AT&T having problems with even getting on 4chan?[/QUOTE]Oddly enough, it's taking forever to load now. Been working fine all day, now all of a sudden it's taking over 10 minutes to load a page... I doubt it's an ISP issue though, probably another AnonTalk DDoS attack.
Yeah 4chan and /b/ aren't loading for me either.
It seems I can access img.4chan.org once again, it's just going incredibly slow. Maybe this was indeed a small blocking due to the on going DDoS's towards 4chan.org.
[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;16294589]Not all areas have access to multiple high-speed ISPs. Best we can do is wait it out until everyone has multiple options in terms of ISPs, in which case one ISP blocking a site means another ISP will probably allow it and start stealing their customers.[/QUOTE] This is what's freaking me out. I use At&T because it's cheap, i don't want to pay $50 a month for cable and i really want to switch, but i can't. And my connection to 4chan itself is pretty slow right now. Sucks that i can't go to /po/ now, which was all that 4chan was good for.
Good, maybe 4chan will die. And every other chan out there.
Unbelievable how people are still coming in this thread just say "Good, fuck 4chan." it's as if they didn't read anything besides the thread title.
[QUOTE=cyanide101;16300226]Good, maybe 4chan will die. And every other chan out there.[/QUOTE] What do people have against 4chan? Yeah, /b/ is a shithole. Don't go there. Not all of 4chan is /b/, /po/ is an AMAZING place for papercraft patterns, /wg/ is where i get all of my wallpapers, and there are plenty of other boards for specific interests. If you stay away from the shit that attracts idiots (lols and porn) then 4chan is great.
i have AT&T, it's blocked but I don't care, I hate 4chan
[QUOTE=i_speel_good;16298264]4chan is NOT /b/ god fucking damn it. When will you understand? As said before, when people refer to 4chan they probably mean /b/ but are too fucking stupid to understand the difference. Don't try to look like a kickass cool rebel when you know [B]fuck[/B] about a subject. You probably have never visited 4chan thinking it's all the same crazy stupid shit as the media tell you it and /b/ is? They are forcing you out of a great site because of a small portion. If someone tells someone that OIFY is shit and that's in facepunch, isn't that someone gonna tell people not to visit Facepunch because it's shit, while they mean OIFY? This is EXACTLY what happened here with 4chan and /b/. Did you know 4chan has rules? HOLY SHIT RLY? Yes it does. It's not the disorganized hacking web site you think where anyone can organize attacks against the whole internet. Did you know that there are sections in 4chan about Japanese Culture (manga, anime etc)? Television and Movies? Weapons? Cars? Animals and Nature? Papercraft? Cooking? Video Games? Comics? Technology? Sports? Travel? Health and Fitness? No? Doesn't surprise me. Yes, there are trolls, yes there are people doing mad shit. But aren't these people also on Facepunch? This doesn't make Facepunch equal to the OIFY. So, I'll say it one more goddamn fucking time. [B]4chan. Is. [highlight]NOT.[/highlight] /b/.[/B][/QUOTE] Finally someone who fucking realizes this and isn't fucking stupid. A+ man.
[QUOTE=cyanide101;16300226]Good, maybe 4chan will die. And every other chan out there.[/QUOTE] Are you new to the internet? Do you know how much /b/ has had an impact on the internet? And do you even know what a *chan is? Not every *chan is like 4chan. And 4chan isn't even as bad as you think it is. You're just thinking of /b/.
[QUOTE=The_Naysayer;16294291]Chances are the other telecoms will follow suit too. They all have the same agendas. That makes the "Well, don't use at&t" argument a bit void... but we'll see.[/QUOTE] That is why you could then go out and make a network which label would be "We don't censor anything" and get all the other networks customers and get bucketloads of money. Private enterprise, if there is a demand, there is money. There is nothing stoping you from becoming an ISP yourself and providing a service which the rest don't.

Well I dodged the bullet, I had AT&T two years ago.

/b/ being blocked is a not a big deal in the sense that it was a place I visited often but... What worries me is that a company that I payed for its services can regulate my possible sources of information without consent What if Apple don't like Mozilla? Can they just block them also?
I have AT&T and at first I couldn't get to it. After a few tries, /b/ loads fine, but shit that was a mistake. Not going there again.
What worries me is the length Anon will go just to have /b/ back.

This reminds me of all those TV Shows that have the person sign a contract and doesn't read it xDDDD
[QUOTE=thisispain;16300601]technically, you signed a contract stating that they don't need your consent[/QUOTE] That's true. I just get annoyed that company's feel they have right to regulate the internet Technically it was my parents who signed the contract for my phone though :v: AT&T is horseshit anyway so I may just end up going with another network since they sold my phone number and I never stop getting sales calls
Hmm. I don't even have AT&T and I can't access 4chan.org [quote=4chan status.com]Cogent Communications has joined the club—they're now blocking all of 4chan. I can't even access the site at this point. We're working on it...[/quote] Who's Cogent Communications?

[According to Encyclopedia Dramatica] xkcd joined the party and blocked AT&T people to help /b/ out. Ok.
Cogent Communications, a teir 1 backbone providor, are now blocking 4chan, according to traceroute: [quote]MyServer:~$ traceroute-nanog img.4chan.org traceroute to img.4chan.org (207.126.64.181), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 1.722 ms 1.757 ms 1.787 ms 2 96.128.0.1 (96.128.0.1) 30.407 ms 10.644 ms 8.018 ms 3 ge-2-2-ur01.rehoboth.ma.boston.comcast.net (68.85.160.173) 12.030 ms 8.663 ms 8.398 ms 4 po-52-ar01.foxboro.ma.boston.comcast.net (68.87.144.117) 9.315 ms 9.250 ms 9.636 ms 5 be-56-ar01.needham.ma.boston.comcast.net (68.85.162.181) 11.976 ms 12.243 ms 9.755 ms 6 pos-0-1-0-0-ar01.chartford.ct.hartford.comcast.net (68.85.162.74) 14.033 ms 15.842 ms 14.809 ms 7 pos-2-3-0-0-cr01.newyork.ny.ibone.comcast.net (68.86.90.57) 16.975 ms 18.722 ms 20.915 ms 8 * * * 9 * * * 10 * * * 11 * * * 12 * * * 13 te4-1.mpd01.dfw01.atlas.cogentco.com (154.54.2.14) 62.691 ms te7-3.mpd01.dfw01.atlas.cogentco.com (154.54.5.129) 91.471 ms te4-1.mpd01.dfw01.atlas.cogentco.com (154.54.2.14) 71.328 ms 14 te4-3.mpd01.dfw03.atlas.cogentco.com (154.54.6.58) 60.327 ms te8-3.mpd01.dfw03.atlas.cogentco.com (66.28.4.174) 68.335 ms te4-3.mpd01.dfw03.atlas.cogentco.com (154.54.6.58) 59.371 ms 15 38.104.35.234 (38.104.35.234) 104.143 ms 115.550 ms 104.286 ms 16 * * unknown.xeex.net (216.152.253.26) 71.875 ms 17 * * * 18 * * * 19 * * * 20 * * * 21 * * * 22 * * * 23 * * * 24 * * * 25 * * * 26 * * * 27 * * * 28 * * * 29 * * * 30 * * *[/quote]
