Someone just pointed out that I dumbassedly tracerouted to img.4chan.com, which is a linkfarm.
img.4chan.org is also reachable from AT&T in NY: Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 207.126.64.182, timeout is 2 seconds: .!..! Success rate is 40 percent (2/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 164/196/228 ms ny01-rtr# Type escape sequence to abort.
