It doesn't appear to be a joke or a mistake :O
Quote: One of the main preoccupations of most /b/ denizens, perhaps second only to posting random Photoshops or child pornography, is attempting to hack or deface sites which the groupthink of the moment deems objectionable.---
Already the board and various external sites (for the sake of those blocked) are alive with talk of how best to crush AT&T's network or customer
service infrastructure in an effort to force the company to reinstate access to the site; much talk also centres on waging a terror campaign against the CEO
and top executives of AT&T, who are now unfortunate enough to be having their personal details widely circulated online.
Whether this is an act of censorship based on the content of the server (which would indeed be highly reprehensible), or a transient effort to control the
headache for the company's network infrastructure which /b/ must at times represent is not completely clear, but it seems most likely to be the
latter.
In either case, the hysterical response of 4chan users and their immediate resort to tactics of vandalism and intimidation hardly elicit great
sympathy

waste."
