I think 4chan is different. It has a unique user base with a lot of internet history. If you take it down it will create a new energy in the free speech movement that will gain incredible momentum. 4chan is definitely functioning as a containment site right now. It hasn't changed in years, so a replacement would likely be more innovative.
