The number of times that signing an online petition has prevented the plans of an evil corporation is exactly zero.
There are already some movements, like #Keep Android Open that ask to contact local regulators and law makers, this petition is useful to have a concrete number of people that agree and that can be used officially
I am not so sure. It creats activity, being passive is worse. We should encourage all type of protests, even petitions.
It dissipates righteous indignation by making sure that people feel the satisfaction and the release of "doing something" (and thus not act any more forcefully) whilst said "something" is the least impactful thing imaginable.
It ultimately makes those who would do more do less instead.
Fire also creates activity.
I’m highly active at a molecular level doesn’t mean I’m getting shit done 😊
at the molecular level at that.
Companies have reversed unpopular decisions in the past (just saw a thing about Facebook reversing some AI thing). So there may be some possible chance of them reversing this decision. I'm not hopeful but the cost is cheap, and it has a better chance of success than doing nothing
Hence the proliferation of spam… It cost nearly nothing to do and has a very limited chance of return… And yet my inbox has still got 10,000 messages in it which I do nothing about.
