You know all those warnings that corporate #Bluesky is vulnerable to political censorship...

And so it begins.

"A Bluesky account you control... posted content or shared a link that contains non-consensual explicit material, which is in violation of our Community Guidelines. As a result of this violation, we have taken down your post"

What happens as the political pressure to toe the line increases?

Public Social Media Fediverse is the only defensible option.

On the same day that Jeff Bezos cracks down on unflattering opinion in his newspaper, corporate #Bluesky begins to censor the progressive ex-Twitter/X users that had flocked there thinking that they where switching to a safe haven.

So, it matters who owns your platform.

We don't know who all owns #Bluesky (it's a secret), but we do know that VCs and crytobros are big equity holders, and the expectation that they will stand up to political pressure should be exactly zero.

Just wondering how #Bluesky users and the Bluesky advocates here on Mastodon are responding to today's political censorship. Would love to see some of the reaction. Please feel free to post examples below. Thanks.

UPDATE: #Bluesky Backs Down Reinstates Censored Video

Thanks to 404 Media @404mediaco, the video has been unblocked.

"New: Bluesky deleted the AI protest video of Trump sucking Musk's toes, calling it 'non-consensual explicit material'. Now after we published, Bluesky has put it back.

"re-evaluating the newsworthy context, the moderation team is reinstating those posts."

Imagine how happy cryptobros are with the Trump administration, now that it's holding crypto as a reserve currency...
I dont watch the tickers. Has that made crypto any more stable or is it still a gambling and scam operation @argumento ?
As Bukele's move, it's very likely to make crypto more stable, unless Trump plays a rug pull, but I see that as unlikely. Once a big actor like a State gets hold of cryptos they'll need to keep the value within a threshold or risk loosing vasts amounts of money.
But that'll keep cryptobros eating from Trump and Musk's hand. And in that sense, the projects they fund won't bite the hand that feeds them.
