Decentralized social network Mastodon says it can’t comply with Mississippi’s age verification law — the same law that saw rival Bluesky pull out of the state — because it doesn’t have the means to do so.

The social non-profit explains that Mastodon doesn’t track its users, which makes it difficult to enforce such legislation. Nor does it want to use IP address-based blocks, as those would unfairly impact people who were traveling, it says.

      Yeah, the soccer industry is full of some of the scummiest people on earth.

      There’s a lot of money to be made off of idiots who don’t know any better for doing pretty much nothing.
