From the actual petition:
"Due to the unprecedented number of online personal attacks on indie authors we petition the Whitehouse to direct the Attorney General to investigate the wide spread problem of stalking, bullying , harassment, intimidation, criminal defamation and libel originating from the websites goodreads.com and Amazon.com. There resides on these sites a gang of serial criminals who endlessly attack writers with the express intent to damage, reputations, careers and trade. These criminals terrorize writers on a regular basis and we, the victims, want it stopped."

I clicked over to look and at that time the petition had 5 supporters, leaving only 99,995 to go.
I found out about this on FB this morning right around 7am. That was all it had then too.
Oh brother. What about all the indie authors who are helped by positive reviews? I know I've written a few.
