Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian won’t invest in Facebook due to its CISPA support

Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian visited CNN today and discussed Facebook’s upcoming IPO, saying that he’ll be holding off on investing in the company due to its support of CISPA.

Ohanian, whose thoughts are very respected in the tech community, had some interesting insight into how Mark Zuckerberg might have to change his ways once the company goes public. It’s an interesting clip, so definitely have a look:
