The US state of Mississippi has an age verification law that requires social media platforms to identify the age of all users. Bluesky has refused and blocks users from connecting from Mississippi.

Here’s the Bluesky story https://www.myprivacy.blog/mississippis-age-verification-law-and-the-bluesky-standoff-a-critical-analysis/?ref=compliancehub.wiki


And how Mastodon instances are responding https://www.compliancehub.wiki/the-decentralized-resistance-how-mississippis-digital-id-law-met-its-match-with-mastodon/


Have anybody in the Nostr ecosystem considered this? Are clients doing KYC on users? Anyone blocking Mississippi?

Wouldn't really matter unless there's a Mississippi based entity for them to litigate against though?

How to say that you are not a decentralized network without saying that you are not a decentralized network.

Most nostr devs aren't as statist as you, might not pretend the authorities' "requirements" matter
