Chaos is coming.
"Mississippi's approach would fundamentally change how users access Bluesky. The Supreme Court’s recent decision leaves us facing a hard reality: comply with Mississippi’s age assurance law—and make every Mississippi Bluesky user hand over sensitive personal information and undergo age checks to access the site—or risk massive fines.
"The law would also require us to identify and track which users are children, unlike our approach in other regions. We think this law creates challenges that go beyond its child safety goals, and creates significant barriers that limit free speech and disproportionately harm smaller platforms and emerging technologies."

Seems like folks in Mississippi might be able to see #bluesky accounts on fedi if those accounts bridge here. The wonders of actual decentralization. #SocialWeb

I guess that settles the "is BlueSky decentralized" debate?

Unpopular opinion: I would have preferred that #Bluesky had caved to the #Mississippi law and forced all users to hand their personal information to keep using the network - if only to prove that #ATProto is not yet decentralized enough to withstand users migrating elsewhere.

Bluesky is blocking users in Mississippi due to Mississippi's age verification law.
HB1126 is incredibly destructive and needs to be fought before we see more like it.

#BlueSky was forced to block access in #Mississippi. I can recommend #ProtonVPN - based in Switzerland, so have to obey the strict Swiss privacy laws. Their CEO has some issues though.
