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.

Description

From the source:

I'm not a political person, but I feel strongly enough about the e621 situation that I had to draw a political cartoon about it.

    Tldr: Young human and young human-likes got purged.

    The adults are next. /s

    But honestly I think this would constitute more of a finger or a toe than a whole leg.

    On a separate note, why is kingdom hearts tagged? Is that a keyhacksaw?

    That melon-lookin' thing is a Meow Wow.
    And I chose a leg for the same reason I didn't allude to what was deleted.
    Because this won't be the last time this happens. And when it happens again, this picture will be just as relevant.

    The weird watermelon colored thing is based on the Meow Wow from Kingdom Hearts.

    Am I the only person on this site that thinks that this is for the better?

    No, but censorship is still immoral.
    It also nullifies e621's self-proclaimed status as an "archive".

  • Oh hey, my avatar's undeleted.
    I told myself I wouldn't upload here again until it was restored, so here I go.
