It's just a digital signature from what I am understanding. The same thing accepted by the federal governments executive branch for every IRS tax form I've submitted since 2006 when I started working.

If they believe a digital signature doesn't count, the executive branch should return all taxes paid with digital signatures immediately and ask we resubmit them come April when taxes are do again.

Edit: oh, also near all student loans are signed digitally, so they need to void those all as well.

You know every time I've had any medical work done I've digitally signed my consent for them to treat me and to bill me...

Can we also wipe out all medical debt and then sue the hospitals for treating without consent?
