The first show of 2012!
It’s the final episode of 2011!
This is the Technology Bytes interview with Alexis Ohanion, co-founder of Reddit.
Alexis called in to the show tonight to discuss The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), also known as H.R. 3261
The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), also known as H.R. 3261, is a bill that was introduced in the United States House of Representatives on October 26, 2011, by Representative Lamar Smith (R-TX) and a bipartisan group of 12 initial co-sponsors. The bill expands the ability of U.S. law enforcement and copyright holders to fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods. Now before the House Judiciary Committee, it builds on the similar PRO-IP Act of 2008 and the corresponding Senate bill, the Protect IP Act.
Tonight’s show featured much light-hearted holiday banter and, of course the “song”, but also had a more serious side as we interviewed Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit about the Stop Online Piracy Act (aka SOPA) bill.
We’re back from fundraising and on with regular programming!
