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!

MemberFantastic artwork, this is perfect in every way, it's so professional. You digital artists are outstanding! Stylistically, this reminds me of the Polar Bear Coke-A-Cola commercial. This is so detailed and professional. Keep up the amazing work!

MemberWell if it was the Coke-A-Cola bear I'm sure he would tell you. That you can't beat the real thing and you should taste the feeling. Which I am pretty sure would taste delicious.
So just what would a Carebear look like if they were photo realistically drawn? Apart from that how do you know he isn't a very caring bear you probably don't even know him, now do ya :p
