I don't see this being a problem. Basement Dwellers don't use phones.

Verizon should be unblocking boards.4chan.org later tonight.

I'll post a more detailed explanation tomorrow, but the issue is similar to the one we had with AT&T last year.

>"2 of 4Chan affiliates were staging for attacks," Nelson wrote, adding that the attacks had stopped.

by "affiliate", in other words, they censored the whole site because some fag on /b/ posted someone's phone number -OR- another *chan site was trolling someone on VZ Wireless hard enough and VZ was just dumb enough to think "durr, *chan=4chan"
