Of course it’s feeble, but what voice do remainers have?

Less that 4% of signings are made from outside of the U.K. whilst some of these may be illegitimate, many of these will be brits who are currently abroad. You need a unique and legitimate email add for each signing, so it’s quite hard for a single bot to replicate hundreds of signings.


Bots are exceptionally good these days.

Let me know when it reaches 17 Million. How many of the people who have signed are eligible to vote in a General Election?

Sophisticated indeed. Like this guy who created 3 email accounts to discredit the petition?

If the petition had been organized by Arron Banks’ Leave Campaign it would have hit 90 million signatures by now.

"Joked"?

Have you read the actual posts? One of the friends bragging about modifications, posting link to "training balls" for maximum pain.

I condemn any death threats made against Soubry.

Again., if right wing leave people started a petition and did the same "joke" facebook posts, the outcry would be incredible - and valid.


When she said, "THIS CREATURE NEEDS PUTTING DOWN", I do not think that she was talking about paintballing there.

Regarding the paintballing messages, it was not just a one off post. She had an extended conversation over a period of time about how she would like to shoot Theresa May (and suggested others in the House of Commons) with a modified version of a powerful paintball gun to increase maximum pain and suffering.

I'm not sure why anyone is defending this woman.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Regarding the 2 marches going on currently.

In respect of the people's vote march, I'm sure there will be a big difference between the leave and remain camps estimates of the numbers attending.

In respect of the march to leave, the exact number attending will be easily verifiable.

You’ve just posted a link to an article that explained that the fraudulent signatures were all removed.

Lol.

Not true.

" is currently investigating the petition for fraudulent activity after being forced to remove 77,000 signatures"

77k were easily identified as fake accounts.

Petition "currently investigated for fraudulent activity" in addition.

It's not too difficult to write a bot, create a mass of throwaway email addresses if not already done, register and use for petition.

Whatever Bluey.

Let’s see what the government says:

“A few people have been talking about fraud and overseas signatures. As of this afternoon, approximately 96% of signatures on the petition were from the UK. That’s broadly what we’d expect for a petition like this.”

“We don’t comment in detail about security measures. We use different techniques - automated and manual - to identify and block signatures from bots, disposable email addresses and other sources that show signs of fraudulent activity. We also monitor signing patterns.”


And:

“Update — 15.48 Hours Friday March 22nd 2019:

Conclusions remain unchanged:

- There is nothing to suggest bots based outside of the UK are impacting on this petition in terms of numbers of signatures and the figures of non-UK signatories are not significant.
- The data available suggest that signatures are largely genuine and non-domestic signatures are indicative of ex-pats signing the petition.
- We suspect that efforts may have been made to deny service to the petitions website, preventing users from signing the petition but restrict our view to suspicion in the absence of verified information.
- It is clear that disinformation is being spread to attempt to discredit this petition by known disinformation actors.
- Anyone claiming that bots are active either has access to data which isn’t publicly available or is aware or complicit in such activity.”

See the bit above about ‘known disinformation actors’ spreading disinformation to attempt to discredit the petition? They mean the Russians. Which the usual suspects on here all believe.

Not difficult at all. Easily spotted to.

Interestingly, the confirmation click could present some challenge.

Lisa, have you every worked on any government related IT systems? If you had, you'd not necessarily have great confidence in them. What has been said is classic talk.

96% of signatures "from" uk? Doesn't make them valid signatures. Not difficult that. Of course they won't comment about security measures. Bot writers are usually a few steps ahead of them for the most part.

When IT idiots in NHS couldn't be arsed applying security patches on outward facing systems, excuse me for thinking that security on a frigging petition site may not be the toughest ever.

Yup, it's got to be the Russians. I mean, their disinformation caused a Leave vote, something that's been debunked already.
