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.

We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

BlockedSee, guy in the top is smart and much more focused on the reality at hand. You can't ambush him so easily, whereas the other two dorks at bottom have nothing on them but themselves.

MemberI think that has to do with the area they are in. The guys on top look like they are out in the wilderness while the guys on the bottom are in some kind of compound. Most likely the guys on the bottom are in a safe or mostly safe environment probably with more people. Do I over analyze my porn to much?
