Bluesky is a small indie company. It can’t afford to fight the law or implement the extensive age verification the law requires. So it chose to pull the plug and leave.
FB, X, etc, have a lot more resources to either implement the extensive, invasive age verification Mississippi requires or keep fighting it in court.

There are other Appviews on the atProto that have chosen not to implement checks that have full access to Bluesky posting/data.
