What's up with this?

https://blockchain.info/tx/8ba4de3fafbfaf1e66e1d00b1409006d65f92061538c4472c4545a1b436085a1

Thousands of single Satoshi transfers to all seperate addresses. Is this an attack vector?

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

transactions with outputs under 5430 satoshis are banned for this exact reason.

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

By banned you mean, even if a miner decided to include it in a block it wouldn't go through?

So it's just a prank?

By "banned", he means most miners outright refuse to include these transactions in a block, and most nodes won't even relay them. Key word here being "most". There is absolutely nothing prohibiting a miner from including these transactions in a valid block if they choose to do so.
