Bluesky, a social networking service, has announced a new verification system to authenticate ‘notable’ users. This initiative, which echoes the previous Twitter verification system, allows users to apply for verification through an online form. Organizations can become Trusted Verifiers, enabling them to verify other users. Over 270,000 accounts have adopted a domain-based verification system, where users link their identity to a domain name that becomes their username. The criteria for notability include professional recognition, media coverage, and presence on credible platforms. This move is part of Bluesky’s effort to differentiate itself from other platforms by leveraging decentralized tools for verification.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
