No. What part of AT&T's defense involved operational network security? For whatever it's worth: AT&T's complicity in NSA monitoring of overseas traffic involving American citizens was despicable.
I'm not sure if you are still watching this thread, but EFF posted a blog article today that covers where I was going with that thought:

I don't share their concerns about the "hack back" thing. It's hard to take that seriously.
