It's not a false signature, this kind of thing is standard practice for digitally signing documents. DocuSign even allows you to insert a computer-generated signature that looks nothing like your "real" one. What matters is the audit trail.
This is legally binding the same way clicking the "Buy" button on Amazon is.
- sbarre 7y agoYes yes that's all nice and good until the person you're signing the document for tell you "I don't care what someone on Hacker News thinks is good enough, I need this signed in ink". I've encountered this before myself, and so have many other people, and we're all already aware of what you're saying.
