News: Feb 26, 2025 Show

Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.

Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.

Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

    the american time format can be confusing sometimes

    This is not "American" Time. Most people do not use this format in America.
    This format dates back 1000s of years ago and is used by many countries militaries as it is generally less confusing.

    Not fair! Metric is used for the important stuff, and then nothing else.

    People have preconceived biases that they *really* want to affirm so they dont have to look at their hate filled lives and reflect, and rather than check to make sure their right about something as simple as a different time system, they'd rather be aggressive towards a stranger on the internet, military time is superior regardless of what these people think since you dont have to specificy am/pm
