My understanding is you need to input identification data, like a driver's license just as an example, to sign.
They expect some invalidating, hence aiming for over the million, but why do you think a "fair chunk" will be from USA specifically?
It's a popular proposal, and gamers like to game the system.

I'm so glad to see that this has gotten so far. When I saw Ross' video on it I thought it was probably over. I hope some good change will come of this in the future.

it’s just name/age/address. And I expect a decent chunk to be from outside the US because people are terrible at following directions when an issue pertains to them.

A fair chunk will have come from the US. I would not be surprised to see a 20% drop in the end. Hope this goes somewhere for everyone’s sakes. And as always, avoid signing if you’re not eligible!
I feel kinda helpless as an American watching the petition grow. I wonder what would happen if an American petition got big, would corporate America kill it? Would it get traction? Idk...

I think it depends on the country. If you click on their instructions for different countries—Itally, for example—they have screenshots that show needing a document number like a Personal ID card.

So… when do we get to play Concord? I assume that’s what this is all about.

Poland requires DigitalID or PESEL (National Identification Number, kinda like SSN for the yanks) number.

Does the US have citizens iniatives?
This isn't just a change.org petition. In the EU (and a lot of member countries) theres a system for citizens initiatives, which have the same or similar legal weight as laws proposed by legislators.
That doesn't mean the proposed laws get passed, but it does mean the people can bypass the politicians in order to at least get something onto the starting line.

Some states allow citizens to propose ballot measures if they get enough support, which then get put up to vote in the next election and become law, but both parties hate the practice and fight it wherever they can. No such thing exists at a national level though.

More than that, I was asked to login with my electronic identification account

The old senators will think that’s a good deal.

I was asked for my ID number for Portugal.

Are ID Documents numbers validated on submit if you fill the form instead of using eID?
Some countries don't even have an eID option, and Finland and Ireland don't even ask for document id. -

And even then instead of being people driven, the US administration would choose what they want to address or not. For all the excesses of EU bureaucracy, there are plenty cases like this where it prevents politicians from ignoring people's concerns; they can still refuse to act, but at least the petition system forces them to go on record.

From Belgium it was also necessary to provide your social security number. And as more EU countries are moving towards e-id, I would assume there will be a negligible amount of non-EU signings.

Don't worry too much. If the EU passes legislation for this, you'll likely benefit from it as well, similar to all the other pro consumer things spilling over.

Thankfully for publishers and unfortunately for us, it is not retroactive. But I do wish that it was.
