Bluesky adds domain verification to prevent imposters

Bluesky, a growing social media platform, has updated its impersonation policy to tackle fake accounts and improve identity verification.

Impersonation and handle-squatting accounts will now be promptly removed under stricter enforcement.

Bluesky, unlike Twitter (now X), does not have a verified badge system but uses verified domains in user handles for authenticity.

For instance, “bsky.team” in a handle indicates affiliation with Bluesky.

Parody and fan accounts must clearly label their status in their display name and bio.
