    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 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.

        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.

        No, not for the vast majority of EU States, no, it requires an actual official government id like the EU eID, your tax ID number, something like that.

        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.

      It’s a popular proposal, and gamers like to game the system.
