Age verification laws for social media go far beyond just impacting people under 18 or restricting adult content — they make it harder for all of us to access information and speak freely online.
Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.
While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

🚨 The Trump administration just withdrew its plan to roll back a Biden-era ban on asbestos. Public pressure and bad press made them back off. This shows even hostile administrations are sensitive to outrage - small wins like this are critical. Here’s why: 🧵
