Some possibilities:
Or they took it offline to "hide" all the blacked out subreddits. Some had images about the third party apps as their only post, which was on the front page. By going offline it makes it seem like more of a technical issue rather than a protest.
Using Occam's Razor, I'd bet on the last option.
It's a false flag operation so reddit admins can claim they were attacked and take legal action against the protesters.

@nodsocket It's a special de-blackoutisation operation through their own blackout.
