Bluesky, the social media platform that has been taking off lately in spite of its slow beginnings, is now taking a stronger stance against impersonation. The companythat it will be removing accounts that pretend to be other people or try to grab usernames they shouldn't have. This comes after research showed that many of the most-followed accounts on Bluesky had fake copies, which is a problem because Bluesky doesn't have a simple way to verify who's really who.
Why all this matters? Well, without a way to know who's really who, it's easy for people to spread false information or trick others. These are issues that are rampant in other social media platforms such as X and even Threads. And now, with Bluesky seeing such exponential growth, it would be smart to nip this in the bud now, before it becomes too much of a monumental task.
