So democrats, who -i presume- initiated those laws can no longer meet online? har-har! now they have to return to musk’s hellhole…

The Mississippi State government has a Republican majority, across all branches.

Id say both parties are in a pissing contest to see who can be responsible for more censorship than the other.

So decentralised!

Imagine being decentralised and having to comply with nation state rules 😂

You can stop a company.

You can block an app.

You can imprison a founder.

But you can’t stop a protocol!

"Bluesky announced on Friday that it would stop operating in the state because of the law, noting concerns over the cost burden and privacy of its users."

Id say this has earned Bluesky an F for censorship resistance.
