Obama's Reddit on Internet Freedom

President Obama made a surprise appearance on an Internet social forum today, popping up on Reddit to take questions via a forum known as Ask Me Anything, or AMA.

Obama's Answer on Internet Freedom and Internet Piracy Laws

QUESTION: We know how Republicans feel about protecting Internet Freedom. Is Internet Freedom an issue you'd push to add to the Democratic Party's 2012 platform?

OBAMA: Internet freedom is something I know you all care passionately about; I do too. We will fight hard to make sure that the internet remains the open forum for everybody - from those who are expressing an idea to those to want to start a business. And although there will be occasional disagreements on the details of various legislative proposals, I won't stray from that principle - and it will be reflected in the platform.

Previously President Obama has held a Google+ "hangout" on Google Inc.'s (GOOG) growing social network.  He's also on Pintrest and Instagram, while regularly posting videos to YouTube.
