I would like to know the answer to this as well. Is there any detailed data on the topic? I know ACTA was shot down but I'm not sure the petition had anything to do with it. From the few articles I read I would think that's less the petition itself and more what the organizers did with the petition data after the petition. I found a few articles: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2017/02/03/yes-signing-those-petitions-makes-a-difference-even-if-they-dont-change-trumps-mind/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2017/02/0... https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/2017/01/do-online-petitions-actually-work-numbers-reveal-truth https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/2017/01/do-online-... https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2016/12/28/we-the-people-five-years-of-online-petitions/ https://www.pewresearch.org/internet/2016/12/28/we-the-peopl...
