Here's a link to the news. https://e621.net/news_updates

Edit: As people in the comments pointed out, this bill targets all websites hosting porn. e621 just happens to be hosted in Arizona, and it therefore affects them directly.

I'm pretty sure that viewing pornography can be harmful to young children.

Not all "minors", but some people forget that the phrase includes both 17 year olds and 4 year olds in some states...

If a 4 year old is exposed to furry porn, I don't think the culprit is the website.

I didn't assign blame to the website, or to anything. I just said that viewing sexual material can be harmful to children.

Which is the problem with completely open ended language, which is always used in such bills so as to only apply to whoever they want to persecute.
