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!

MemberBy the nine! What have i done? Pray talos that he can save us! Some one get the preacher from windhelm!
Ryuzaki Tritium
MemberNo, that won't do any good
He, um... i killed him because i sided with the empire is absent
Alph-trio
Memberwell now you just fucked us all sideways, alright, whos turn is it to summon sheogorath? Or better yet, someone get the guards yeah, like they could be any help
Ryuzaki Tritium
MemberWell, to be fair, if you have enough of them, they can do anything. I once spawned like 1000 Whiterun guards when Sanguine was in the room, made them all attack him..
He didn't get to his next party in one piece.
Alph-trio
MemberYeah, they are more like the strength in numbers kind, if 9,001 guards dont cut it, someones gonna have to apologize to alduin
Ryuzaki Tritium
MemberUnfortunately, if you have that amount of guards, there tends to be an extraordinary amount of lag.
