In the "old" days of e-mail petitions, I would agree with you. But Change.org has done an excellent job of creating a petition site that actually DOES work. So much so, in fact, that Chinese hackers attacked it the other day:

In any event, it takes just a couple of minutes to sign. Is it really that big of a deal?
