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!

BlockedI'm guessing that's Opera Browser behind the wall. Although you never see Maxthon as ever mentioned anywhere.
This is how I use my browsers.
Maxthon - Web Development / Testing
Firefox - Porn
Opera - Unused but installed
Maxthon Nitro - Youtube (slimmed down version of Maxthon loads HTML5 video on Youtube faster then a squirrel on fire after drinking a red bull)
Internet Explorer - Netflix
Chromium - For when I need to sign in to my online banking stuff, but only use Chromium while booted into a virtual box of Debian 7.7
IceWeasel - Came default on Debian 7.7, built off Mozilla Firefox and currently unused. Pain in the ass to install plugins too.
If you don't know what Maxthon is. http://www.maxthon.com/
Probably the best browser you can get, nab a few plugins for it to have it so you can switch between Default, Chrome, Opera, Internet Explorer or Firefox rendering engines while still using Maxthon. Maxthon uses Webkit and Trident core by default. I've been using it sense before the Maxthon name with it was an expanded version of IE called MyIE/MyIE2, but that was years ago.
