Change.org

I found out they were charging me every month for what I thought was a 1-time donation. And I don't even know what the charge is going to? It doesn't seem like there is any fund for the cause I signed the petition fund. So I guess they are just keeping all the money. What a scam site. I don't know how this is legal.

I created a petition for freedom of humanity because all these draconian measures are a way to control people and to reshape the world into tyranny. The petition was holding those people responsible for lying and killing people but it was removed silently.
Because you are not allowed to go against Silicon Valley. Later I found out they are huge financially connected to Bill Gates. The one next to Anthony Fauci the petition was against. Censorship was used to silence me so it's absolutely not an independent site. Change.org is from Google.

Later I saw more articles saying some petitions regarding social activism or against covid rules where censored and removed silently. Better not use the platform. It's just as bad as YouTube when it comes to censorship.

The site is an efficient and effective platform for its stated purpose. But, there are two major problems with the site.

First, there is no provision to voice dissent regarding a petition. So, when the petition is presented to a decision-maker, the decision-maker only sees the people in agreement. Disagreements are not presented. For example, what if 1,000 people support a petition, but 100,000 would not support the same petition? How would the 100,000 people be represented here?

Second, while I saw a large number of left-leaning petitions, I don't recall seeing any petitions supporting conservative values and issues. I'm questioning whether conservatives are simply not using this venue, or if Change.org is not presenting petitions supporting conservative values and issues.

Given these two apparent problems, I am no longer participating in Change.org and have canceled my monthly financial support.

I've been trying to support a couple of petitions for some days, but as soon as I go through the process, I get a message that they don't support my browser... and go on to recommend that I use one of the browsesr that I'm already using! I don't know whether I've duplicated, trebled or quadrupled my signatures: I suspect they haven't accepted any of them, because they are so anxious to persuade me to download the Google Chrome program that I'm already using. I'm certainly not receiving the usual "thank you" and to please "let zillions of friends know that you have signed this petition,," Perhaps I should start a petition suggesting that Change, org set their own house in order... get their act together, and stop wasting our time by their own inadvertence.

The site must be owned by a puppet, as in someone that can not think nor see anything for themselves. The twist and turns in your lies aren't even the real stories! You should be ashamed and shut down immediately in the name of The People.

I signed a petition that was advertised on Twitter. The petition was on change.org. There was a solicitation for contributions that popped up and it looked like it was to support the petition cause. It said with my contribution they can reach more supporters. However, after I made my contribution, I discovered the contribution went to change.org as a "membership fee", and doesn't show any connection to the petition organization I wanted to specifically support! In addition, they automatically make it a monthly contribution! We all understand that they want to get paid but I feel this was either a very sneaky miss-representation and a poor business model.

Good thing I locked my debit card. I've been getting bank notices that transactions couldn't be processed due to my card being locked. I take a look and it's numerous attempted transactions from change.org. I don't recall giving them my card number or making any donations recently to change.org. So these guys need to be reported. I'm keeping my debit card locked so no more weird looking transactions that I didn't approve.

Anyone can use any email address to create and sign petitions. Once your email address is in their system you are spammed forever.

Why is it that anti spam laws do not apply to unethical organizations that refuse to implement email verification?

There are so many Religious and cultural problems also within the society. Many activities are going on within the society which insults and misinterprets a religious and Cultural doctrines in the name of Secularism and Atheism.
But the problem is that the Voice of people who advocates the religion and culture are not recognized by many institutions and NGOs. The Change.org too fail in the given context. There is no separate opinion for Religious and cultural topics within the topics will signing the petition. This very essential topic is neglected by Change.org

I joined 12 years ago when it was free they e-mailed me the list of petitions and I picked or signed the ones I was of interest in. They eventually stopped the e-mail list of petitions I guess 5-6 years ago to me then every once and a while sent a petition and asked to donate to send email to other people for that petition which I didn't. I just got an email 11-03-2017 from change and they wanted a membership fee of 7.75-15.00 25.00 ect. To recur every month and I just deleted the email. I was checking my on line banking on the 6th and change had charged my new debit card 10.00 for what I don't know and couldn't find out with there customer service ( which sucks) I want to know how they got my card no. Are they hackers?
