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.

MemberThere's a really nightmarish thin line here. As much as it is far less egregious than using AI to create deepfakes, it can still be a vector for harassment or discomfort for a real person.
Personally, I don't vibe with this kind of thing. Although maybe that's cheap for me to say since I normally don't feel attracted to humans in the first place.

MemberOk I can understand using fictional characters and whatever but why the hell did you decide to use a real human being for your porn animation?
LowenUnreal
MemberOk this is really crossing the line

MemberYeah I'm gonna agree with the rest of the commenters I think. Feels like it's crossing a line when rl figures get made into porn. Kneejerk reaction is to say "nah it doesn't" cause technically it doesn't, based on the fact it is a caricature of the person and not the actual person but I feel like, of I were a famous normies, Id be upset if people were saying that character was supposed to be the actual me.
It makes it more difficult to distance yourself from the work versus say using a character that you voice act for or an OC that you've created.
