Just hopped in to check and it looks like we’re effectively DDoSing the Petition site by refreshing.

You can either join the watch party on the official discord, or use some other tracker website to see the numbers get updated to help alleviate the traffic so that more people can sign.

    What triggered the massive uptick in signatures recently? Was it that Pirate software guy having his video backfire?

      The petition (along with the Pirate Software drama) has recently been covered by quite a few very popular content creators like MoistCritikal, Asmongold and Pewdiepie. I think that made the a lot of difference, as their videos on the topic have millions of views.

      Critical’s video on covering the drama caused a massive spike in interest.
