Bluesky now allows heads of state to register on social networks

Social networking platform Blue Sky lifted its ban on registration of heads of state over the weekend. This means that different executives can participate on the platform. Brusky's move comes ahead of major general elections scheduled to be held this year in countries such as the United States and India.

During Bluesky's invitation-only period last year, the company said it would not allow heads of state to register and asked users to contact the startup before inviting celebrities.

“While we appreciate the enthusiasm of everyone who has sent invitations, our current policy does not yet allow us to accommodate heads of state to participate in the beta. This also applies to heads of state,” the company said at the time.

Notably, the company opened up its platform to anyone to sign up for the service in February after remaining in invite-only mode for almost a year.

Bluesky faced moderation issues in its early days, battling issues such as allowing racial slurs in its handle. Separately, users have continuously pushed the platform to crack down on hate speech.

Last December, Bluesky added moderation lists along with automated moderation tools. Last month, it announced the Ozone tool, which allows users to build their own moderation and labeling services.

As social networks allow political leaders to participate on their platforms, new types of moderation issues may arise that they have not faced before. And you need to be prepared for different possibilities.

Bluesky's rival, Threads, has distanced itself from actively promoting political content. However, Bluesky users can subscribe to different feeds, so they don't have to rely on a central algorithm to see different types of political content.
