What about people from other countries who have different laws and such?

What if the COPPA doesn't apply to the country?

dA is based out of the US and falls under US law. COPPA applies to the website, not the country the deviant is from/lives in. So, the deviant has to follow the policies set by the laws the website has to follow.

what about obsessive ex friends who keep stalking and harassing you, never letting you go? I've been having problems with this person for the past 3 years and now she has stolen one of my characters, controlling and manipulating me into thinking the character is hers when it's really not. I have lost a lot of friends because of this person and I'm suffering post traumatic distress on top of it. and because I am blocked on her page, there's nothing I can do but endure it...

I'm sorry you don't like it. But rules are rules.

I'll never tell my age! But I am safe.

I understand why this rule is in place. And I completely support it. I'd just like to point out:

There is no way to verify how old someone actually is when the account is created, is there? Anyone can put down their "birthday" and send it to an email of an adult, or one they created for the sole purpose of creating an account here. I thought about it myself and tried it. No, I am not younger than required, I just wanted to test it out. I created a DeviantArt account and sent to my new email which required nothing but full name, birth, address, and a test of that handicap thing. And I was in. I canceled the account immediately, but what I am saying is that it is way too easy and simple to create a false age.
