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.
Though you may be small in stature,
you tend to be clever and cunning.
I'm calling forth to court
Reineke Fuchs, the villain!
If he get's summoned for a third time,
it will be his eternal detriment -
to himself and his fox-lineage.
That is the will of the sacred law of the animals.

And Hinze came to Malpertaus,
the fox looked out the window.
The (male) cat bends modest and mannerly:
"For the second time through messenger's mouth
you shall know of the king's will.
He orders you to attend court,
go, Reineke! And do not delay!
If you dare to not face justice,
so shall your lineage gravely pay!"
Then Reineke called: "Hail and fortune,
my nephew, you shall receive!
Though see, the night falls upon already,
you must be my guest for today.
We will leave at the earliest morning;
I will follow you happily, do not worry.
Because if there is one I can trust,
it would be you, my dear Hinzelmann!"

Reineke laid in good rest
And watched the game of the tired;
Then footsteps reached his ear,
He listened, he jumped up...
"Is it you, Grimbart?" he called out;
"Welcome, friend, in Malpertaus!
You certainly come from the farm -
Say what is new, best one?"
Grimbart began: "From evil things
I must report to you."

For example, the last line of the poem literally translates to "I must bring you newspaper."; which is not supposed to be taken literally.
