Blues in the Mississippi Dark Age Certificate Act
People in the Mississippi It can no longer use Bluesky social media context. The company announced Friday that in response to a recent US Supreme Court decision that allows the government to provide accurate age approved for social media operating systems, the company will block all IP addresses in Mississippi.
According to Blozaki, the Mississippi approach to confirm “fundamentally changes” how users have access to the site. “We think the law creates challenges that go beyond their child’s safety goals and create significant obstacles that limit free speech and harm smaller platforms and emerging technologies.”
Bluski did not respond to the comment’s request.
The company says that following the Mississippi law – which, in addition to asking each user for sensitive personal information to verify its age, needs to be identified and tracked by all users under the age of 18 – with current team resources and infrastructure. Bluezaki can face a maximum of $ 10,000 in any violation of any violations. This is the first main platform for social media to take such severe actions in response to the law.
Age verification rules, which are intended to protect children from harmful content online, have now begun to have a widespread impact on the Internet in places around the world where they have been approved. In the UK, users who try to access everything from pornography to social operating systems now have to provide ID scanning, credit card checks, age estimation scans and more to confirm more than 18. The state of Texas has a similar law that the US Supreme Court confirms in June, despite critics’ concerns about free speech ovulation and access to open Internet information.
Whether these laws are effective in protecting children are unclear. The use of virtual virtual networks (VPNs) in the UK just after the enforcement of its age verification law, using users, used the technology to forge its location. In operating systems like Discord, people realized that they could use video game characters to deceive face scanning. In addition, critics say that age -verification laws intended to reduce harm to children can sometimes have a contrasting impact by putting children at greater risk of stealing identity and privacy violations.
Wired has reached the financial supporters of the main bill, the Mississippi State representatives, Jill Ford, Fabian Nelson and Larry Bayd, and will update the story if commented.
“We believe that effective child safety policies should be accurately appropriate without creating huge obstacles to smaller providers and leading to negative consequences for free expression,” Blozaki wrote.
