Reddit Founder, DNS Hacker And Other SOPA Critics Will Address Congress In Hearing: Forbes

On Jan. 9th, 2012, Andy Greenberg reported for Forbes on the progress of SOPA.  The article says that SOPA hearings will resume on Jan. 18th.  Moreover, the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform decided to hear testimony from several critics of the bill.  In a controversial move, the committee had previously declined to hear any further testimony on SOPA.

The testimony will likely be anti-SOPA, and will focus on "the worries of technical collateral damage."

Interestingly, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian will testify.
