I'm not for bluesky but more sites doing this will help change the law.

No it won't. More sites doing this will keep the citizens of Mississippi shut off from the rest of the world.

Pornhub shutting off access to Texas didn't change any laws, and it didn't keep other states from passing the same laws.

It needs to be a site everyone 'needs'

It hasn't changed them yet.

And it only isolates the non-VPN-using people of these states. Their kids/grandkids have long since figured out how to bypass these idiotic restrictions.

VPN not required, there are enough sites ignoring the laws that we have no need to care.

And they should continue to do so.
