I think that's fair. AT&T should be reprimanded for a serious lack of security — how much they should be reprimanded would be another topic for debate.

But it doesn't take away from weev's crime (both this one and his previous harassments.)

Sorry for your distorted reality. You're saying that everyone who accesses unsecured information on a badly secured server gets reprimanded. You're placing the onus of security on the user which makes your point pure BS.

Granted. But how do you propose that AT&T would ever be reprimanded without someone like weev?

I strongly believe that weev should have notified AT&T before Gawker. But if they were unresponsive, as often happens, what then?
