    This is a different question :lol: I was just referring to a practice of putting e-signatures on the document. I think this story was featured on LET a few times already, so I guess a few people are so unhappy with Curtis that they post it again and again.

    DocuSign is very widely accepted. There is more to it than just applying a .png of your signature or "handwriting font" of it on a document. On mobile and too lazy to go into detail.

    I've always used it for LOAs, NDAs and such.

    I mean, in Ukraine and in Estonia there is digital signatures that are accepted by governments and are used to identify signer. I haven't seen anything close to that guarantees level in DocuSign.

    I've had a DocuSign account for probably a decade or more. I'm sure at some point I've had to KYC with them or give my SSN or something to prove that I am in fact who I'm signing as.

    That's the default signature Docusign creates when you sign a document by typing your full name and surname. As you sign the document with your full name, how the signature looks is unrelated, you typing and accepting the document with your full name binds it to you.

    I’ve had one for a few years and I’ve never had to submit that. The main thing it’s based on is trust and IP you’re signing from.

    Also, you have to click on the link sent to the email and that proves you own the email. All of those should be more than enough to prove that you’re the one signing it.

    I love the drama, it just never ends.

    But honestly, im surprised a path employee sold internal data to competitor. I thought it was marshal just being paranoid of everyone.

    No wonder cosmicguard got pretty similar anti-ddos offerings/game profiles so suddenly.

    While DocuSign and the likes are used globally, Europeans generally have digital signatures issued by the state. So there is no reason for me to "sign" an important legal document with anything other than my state-issued private key, or to do KYC with a private, foreign company like DocuSign.

    DocuSign and the likes are still used for processes where less friction is preferred like for example an utilities contract.

    thanks for this input. I was wondering why Andrew Francis and Curtis Gervais have similar handwritten signature-style,, esp looking at last "i s" characters.

    That's the kicker! Here we find ourselves reading some potential drama with regards to some provider complaining legally about LET, but the provider works, their services work, their servers are up.

    In my opinion this legal complaint can simply be ignored, because LET is a forum which also has public rules allowing for some wiggle room rooted in free speech. The thread of which this legal case is complaining about is already closed and removed, therefore it is safe to conclude that action has already been taken by staff here, hence the complaint is unfounded at present and can safely be ignored because the cause of complaint is non-existent.

    Maybe I am wrong; I'm no lawyer (and also don't wish to waste AI power with analysing this case in detail). Usually good drama here contains some downtime, tickets unanswered, "refounds", providers being rude. But I find this one as something completely different and a bit confusing actually.

    @Nyr said: DocuSign and the likes are still used for processes where less friction is preferred like for example an utilities contract.

    In Sweden they made it incredibly friction free. Even hosting providers use it for login. Issued by activating from your bank (all big banks are in on it), taking a photo of your passport and then finished by scanning your passport's NFC chip with phone

    It supports code and/or FaceID (up to the merchant if they want to allow Face ID or not, usually enabled on transactions for smaller amounts etc)

    Incredibly useful because if you've lost your phone, as long as you have a national ID or a passport with you, you can buy a new phone and generally speaking be able to transact right away, lifesaver when abroad for example

    We get this kind of nonsense periodically from providers or people who don't like something said about them. They open tickets and rattle their legal sabers because someone wrote a bad review, but they usually write the legalese themselves. Remember when you were in fifth grade and wanted to write something that sounded official? Or when you watched that YouTube video of a sovereign citizen being pulled over for having a made-up license plate and the Sov then spouts of bunch of Supreme Court decisions and Black's Law Dictionary citations? That's what they sound like.

    This isn't quite verbatim but they usually sound like this. You'd think with AI they'd at least sound more legitimate.

    TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

    This letter is being written under full legal protestation and pursuant to my rights under applicable statue laws, ordinances, and common law.

    It has come to my attention, by way of electronic evidentiary observation, that a post on LowEndTalk contains numerous defamatory implications, insinuendos, slander-libel hybrids, and character assassinations against myself and/or my associated business enterprise, hereinafter referred to as “The Aggrieved Party of the First Part.”

    You are hereby demanded to remove, delete, vanish, redact, expunge, and otherwise de-exist said post from the entirety of LowEndTalk, LowEndBox, the Internet, Google cache, Bing cache, Yahoo cache if still applicable, and any other worldwide cybernetic repositories.

    Failure to comply within 24 business minutes shall result in the immediate commencification of legal proceedings including, but not limited to subpoena duces, tortious interference lawsuits, and notifications to the Better Business Bureau.

    Please be advised that screenshots have been taken and are now considered notarized because I printed them out and highlighted them in yellow. These documents will be presented as prima facsimile evidence in any tribuneral or arbitrationary venue.

    This is your final warning before I escalate this matter to the highest levels of jurisprudence.
