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!

MemberSo he's started deleting stuff; inkbunny was taken back and also his furaffinity is set on private.
So I suppose we'll have to rely on uploads and hope that someone saved it all before Eigeka deleted it.

From his SFW blog, that's all we got on it. It truly was his claim to fame but changing directions may work out for 'em. All we can do now is wait, I guess.

MemberIt's a shame that he doesn't draw this kind of stuff any more, but hey, maybe he'll get back into it once he's had a long enough break from it.
What always really bothered me about this kind of stuff is when artists feel the need to delete their previous work. Why? You don't have to delete your art just because you've moved on from it. Just don't ever login to the account any more, is as simple as that.
