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.

    wtf, that looks terrifying

    Given the artist calls it a monster, yeah, I'm fairly confident that being creepy as hell is the whole point

    Damn, this reminded me of similarly creepy dolls in 2014 movie As the Gods Will.

    Thats actually exactly correct, the upper torso is based off of that and the creature itself is named as such "Kokeshi"

    Creepy? Nailed it!
    Especially the body paint, like it was trying to be a cute thing, which only made it more creepy.

    Oh yes thats exactly it! of course it doesnt know what cute is, so its not very good at this.
