According to the FIDE laws both players win.
If one resigns seconds before the other the second player wins because his resignation doesn't occur during the game, which terminates on the first players resignation.

If they click on the same time? Well the one with the faster internet/device wins.
But if it reaches the server at the same time, it will depend on how the server is coded
in this case, loses is more accurate
I wonder what happens OTB...
If both players are so bad that they both think they're losing, they each deserve a 0.

No. It saves time if you want to agree a draw and the tournament says you need to have played a certain number of moves.

what if one player is lying and gets the free win?
Title.
If they both did it at the exact same time, then the one with faster server connection speed will resign first.
If they hits the server both at the exact same time, it will probably crash.
Pro
Pro what?
It's baby's first words. They don't have to make sense.
Programmers try to account for all the "edge" cases... so more literally, when the server receives a command to resign a game that's already finished, then it knows to ignore it. This probably happens all the time, for example, when someone makes a move with no time on their clock.
What about double forfeiture when both players refuse to show up at the table so that the clock doesn't start?
