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!

Memberuhh, they clearly didn't need that "commandment" to punish him, so why bother?
silvian
MemberI understand that he deserves that punishment. But I wonder. Why makes my kin has to go through greats just to make him think he's the dragon? :{

Memberdefinitely too fast... he should of been stuffed in a ant hill and agitated them to get some painful results... then their's the iron ox... that one where they tie you to a boat strap another boat , cover you in honey and feed you milk or something... flys and bees are attracted... you keep your bodily functions going...
yes basically anything that would of been slow and painful for him would of been a hell of a lot more satisfying and justified

Memberahhh but thats YOUR version of justice, true justice to me is blind to the ugly of all peoples and just see the crime and judges the said crime. i think this is as good as it can be, because if you do worse to him then the crime he commit you do not prove that he is wrong, to him and others you will just make them think hes the good guy in this or he dose not deserve it.

MemberFrankly, this is probably one of the more basic rules a society can have... it seems odd it would even require to be specially noted.
