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!

MemberThis isn't even the worst of it, honestly.
People have actually been killed at a Group B rally in Portugal in 1986 because the spectators were so close to the track when one of the Peugeot cars spun out of control and into the crowd, not even mentioning that deadly incident with Toivonen later that year in Corsica. I'd link it here but realised I'd probably break a rule so I'll advice everyone who's curious to just look it up for themselves, but it's not a pretty sight so I do warn you.

MemberThe sad thing is, Samir is actually a decent driver. That video was taken after he had been away from rally for a while, and was cut together to make it look worse than it was. That video cost his codriver a seat in a pretty big rally, and they sued the guy who made the video over it.
