SUMMARY: Bluesky, a social media platform once funded by Twitter, has temporarily blocked access in Mississippi due to a new state law requiring age verification for social media users. The law, passed in 2024 after a tragic sextortion case, mandates platforms verify users are over 18 or have parental consent.
