If you're in the EU, you should still sign; extra signatures will be useful if it turns out some of them are invalid.

Fresh update video from Ross about the campaign.

TL;DW:

• There's a chance many of the signatures for the EU petition aren't real. Keep signing to build up a safety margin. Official suggestions are: 10% more minimum, 20% pretty OK, up to 40% more for an actual safety net.
• Some countries had problems with signing using the digital ID system - suggests to use the manual method (instructions on the campaign page) or try again later.
• Someone not related with the campaign released a SKG crypto. Don't touch it, obviously.
• Ross heard about people harassing Pirate Software, asks to stop.
• He's got a lot of messages to reply to, prioritises ones important to the campaign for now.
• UK petition cleared 100k signatures. Number is most likely more reliable than the EU one.
• Link about contacting UK MP's for those who want to do more than just sign a petition.

Definitely keep signing, I'm really concerned at the speed it rose , and I'm really hoping there wasn't something else at play here.

I'm glad. But don't get your hopes up because of this. Commission could (and probably will) just say "we have considered it and we are going to do nothing".

About my lowest threshold for success is that this at least makes disclosures about what you're buying more prominent and restricts the ability for software licenses to just alter the deal and pray that they don't alter them further. Even better disclosures would make the raw deal you're getting become more poisonous before the point of sale. Especially as an American, I'm going to have wait a few years after any legislation goes through before I can trust online multiplayer games again.

This should not stop, the more the merry and also to ensure to filter out anomalies. 34k have already signed pass the million

It's good to see. The UK one is still ticking upward too (133.5k/100k). It's been an impressive last minute push.

Now, we wait and see I guess. I expect nothing useful to come from the UK one, but at least we force them to respond again. Even if it is the same response.

The EU one, I really do hope something comes of it.

At the current rate (which may or may not hold and may or may not be legitimate) the initiative should beat “One of Us”, the biggest one yet with 1.9M signatures (pro-life, ultimately did nothing).

Yay! I'm one in a million!

Can we move for a Stop Killing People now!? :)

One melon!

I swear this is not me doomering (I very much support this campaign and even signed it myself half a year ago), but I strongly suspect that at least a good chunk of those are fake. The issue is very hot in "terminally online" circles and those are the kind of people who don't really think things through before acting.

I hope the number will keep on growing until the "legit" votes make up for the fake ones.

Ich bin dabei 🙋🏼‍♂️

Keep it going, let's see how much more we can get people to sign, let's aim for 1.2
