The PLC DID method is absolutely created by bluesky.

I never said the id they use is arbitrary, I said why not use something deterministic, so it can be handled by alternate resolvers - something that is absolutely possible while still maintaining plc integrity.

It can be handled by alternative resolvers, like https://plc.wtf

Non-plc resolvers. This resolver you referenced is still using plc.directory upstream.

I'm not sure I understand what a non-plc plc resolver would entail.

I never said it wasn’t created by Bluesky, so I’m really not sure why you’re trying to argue that I am. The point is that PLC is usable as a DID method for things that aren’t atproto.

The ID is deterministic, you can reconstruct it by hashing the genesis entry in the audit log.
