Reddit, the online discussion website and self-proclaimed “front page of the internet," closed two of its alt-right discussion boards Wednesday. The company banned the controversial groups for posting home phone numbers and addresses of people they disagreed with or wanted to harass, a practice known as “doxing.” Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian joins us to discuss the ban and how it fits in with the site’s open discussion ethos. We'll also hear about Ohanian’s response to President Trump’s immigration policies and how Ohanian’s own family came to the U.S. as refugees.
