The US Supreme Court recently chose not to intervene—for now—in the enforcement of a Mississippi state law that requires social media sites to verify and track user ages. As a result, unofficial Twitter offshoot Bluesky will go dark in the state.
"Starting today, if you access Bluesky from a Mississippi IP address, you'll see a message explaining why the app isn't available," wrote the company in a statement published online. "This block will remain in place while the courts decide whether the law will stand."
