I wasn't sure either so I just filled it out. You'll be notified if you've signed it before (I did, that's how I know).
I’m maybe paranoid but I’m in a very precarious situation financially and cant afford to be fined or something for filling this out wrong.
Actually the EU probably cant fine me right? I’ll just fill it out
Oh well!
In Canada at least they just tell you signed the petition already.
People’s lives are busy sometimes to remember all the details.
In practice, even if the system allowed you to sign more than once, in most cases, they would just throw out repeated signatures on verification. The only exception is if some figured out how to sign enough times to be obviously malicious.
Another case I would see them go berserk is if they catch someone using other people's identities.
