I expect the trusted authorities would be selected by the server where the user account resides. I.e. if a server’s admin does not recognize a certain authority, it would not show their verifications to users logged in to their server.
It’s possible that it could extend to user selections of trusted verifiers as well, but I think implementing that level of granularity would be more of pain than it’s worth to Bluesky. Still, I could be surprised.
I think their plan is for it to be like how website cert verification works. You have a set of trusted authorities that issue certs (or in this case verifications) and that can revoke them if needed.
Isn’t owning the domain proof enough already?
It’s open to abuse and exploitation the same way domains are in general. An enterprising faker could register a domain that looks legit, but isn’t.
Yes. I’m assuming they mean W-OLED (the other kind of OLED) when they say OLED. Or else they meant to say uLED.
Oh, so that’s why I give people cop vibes, when I’m really just colorblind.
Gotta make sure the fan is quiet enough for it though.
The case likely began (as an investigation) while Trump was still in office. Here’s hoping it can continue.
The support article explains the rationale.
Unchecked by default would render the experiment useless.
I’m dubious Android even serves as a base for Kobo’s OS. I’ve seen no evidence to support that claim.
EDIT: if you are referring to Tolinos, they are not simple rebrands of Kobos.
Tolinos use different processors precisely because they run Android, while Kobos do not.
I’m not aware of any Kobo using Android.
Kobo? No. They have their own firmware.
This appears to be an experimental initiative within Mozilla right now. It’s not available to the public and may never be if it doesn’t pass muster for them.

Looks like their subreddit’s been restricted too.
The Chagos Refugees are seeking repatriation of the .io domain name and fees. They likely don’t want people to stop using that domain unless they lose that case.
You could just buy one of their products (Pocket, VPN, etc.) and not use it if you want.
Some sloppy copy-paste editing in the article. It still references president Biden.
The bill never made it to a vote last time. I expect it will have a similar fate this time —especially with legislative attention focused so much on budget issues. Feels like something they did so they can put it in an election ad.
I hope i’m wrong and it makes it further, but i’m not holding my breath.
