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.

We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberWell why DON'T they make prosthetic horns in equestria? Surely tempest isn't the o my one to break her horn.

MemberI think that would depend if the prosthetic would actually do anything unlike say if a leg went missing. A prosthetic leg gives the disabled to walk again. A prosthetic horn seems more like an aesthetic choice then a practical one so it begs the question if it's actually worth the effort of even using one.

MemberIt'd be on par with a prosthetic eye in my opinion.

MemberIt would make sense if the horns act as foci for their magic.
