Are you saying AT&T should block UDP entirely?

No; while I don't presume to have all the answers they should at the
minimum take into account how it affects the end-user (CUSTOMER!)

(No they shouldn't block UDP entirely, but if they're having UDP/443
DDOS problems then blocking it while they get a proper scalable solution
in place is better than throttling it).
