April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberHard times have fallen upon the seaponies, and the world has seemed to have forgotten them. The lack of tourism to their land has put most seaponies in severe financial trouble. The few seaponies that can still afford to spend what little they have on clothes can only afford one part of a starfish bra, which generally leads to unsuccessful coverage, though it is still better than what most can afford.
This scantily clad society soon led to prostitution running rampant throughout the sea and on many beaches. This in turn created a new source of income for the seaponies and gave them more tourism to their land then they had ever seen. The sea is most definitely starting to change, but is it for the better?
Next time on 20/20, Plots do we look at them to see a talent, or something more than that?
