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.

MemberFunny as it was, I didn't know it was April Fool's Day, and so I took the FurID thing seriously. I'm not much good at drawing either, but I do kinda have a fursona to draw. So I was laying there for several minutes trying in vain to draw something at least passable (my pfp). And then when I realised it was a joke, I was disappointed that I didn't draw something funny.
LonelyLucario
MemberI began thinking that if this was real, this site would lose tons of visitors, real people, who can't draw so they could never return
Lena05227
MemberYeah, I can see that happening. It would honestly be kind of a ridiculous requirement to access this site. Plenty of people here to admire the artwork who themselves can't draw and who might not have fursonas. Can't say it didn't end up being a great April Fool's Joke though, imo.
LonelyLucario
MemberIt shows how easily gullible I am. I was kinda thinking that it wasn't a joke at first due to the pop up that there might be a law that will require extra measures to get on sites like this
Lena05227
MemberI mean, I fell for it too. And for me that was also partially because of the aforementioned pop up.
