In the middle of the night they got a dozen new signatures per second, which I find highly suspicious
I hope someone didn't script it and cause the petition to be filled with mostly fake data
Could be suspicious but could also be because the EU is big.

Sure, but I checked at 3am. On a work day
The chances that such a large amount of people, consistently, sign the petition over a timespan of half an hour or so that I checked, is suspicious
There are a lot of Europeans living abroad so who knows, but I agree, I'm pretty skeptical of such a fast rise.
