On protecting democracy and elections in Europe by avoiding anonymity on social networks 

The petitioner points at the generalized influence on democratic elections by non-EU entities via malicious campaigning on social media, using anonymous or fake accounts. Such activities aim at destroying unity at national level or at EU level, based on fake news largely spread around. The petitioner calls for a limitation to the risks these practices pose to democracies and calls for the principle of responsibility to be applied also in the viral world: anonymousness and fake accounts should be banned and only accounts linked to a verified identity should be allowed.
