The cofounder of social news site Reddit says legislation discussed before the U.S. Congress threatens the future of the social Web. In a video posted to YouTube and shared on his Twitter and Google+ pages, Alexis Ohanian pleaded with his followers to fight the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), which the U.S.

House of Representatives debates on Friday. Supporters of the act say it will help stamp out online piracy. Ohanian and many others in the tech world, including Google, Yahoo and eBay, say the legislation amounts to censorship and could cripple the Internet. “A ton of us New York tech founders showed up on Saturday to discuss what we could do to make sure this bill does not pass because, it threatens not just our Internet but our livelihoods,” Ohanian says in the video. Reddit, which sees 30 million unique visitors a month and often helps drive news and conversation online, would never have existed if SOPA had been around six years ago, according to Ohanian.
