It can't happen because no single authority in the world is able to label news as fake or truth. "fake" and "truth" and often misused by politicians and people to call other news that they don't like, as "fake".

Jan 22, 2021Yes, I agree as well.
Did you know that the Edge mobile app has an option to turn on Newsguard? It seems that Microsoft has donated or contributed a lot to get that their extension is free on all edge browsers.
Mobile Edge already has this and if you wish to have it on desktop, just install the extension but as HotCakes said, it may be very biased.

Yes, of course i know that, it's right in the settings, the biased useless service. - WittycatJan 22, 2021Iron Contributorif i ask to integrate it in navscreen c'est for privacy purpose, their extension is a little too talkative for me (even if they promise they don't use them i don't trust people so easily), so it's why i think that have microsoft who have a database totally facultative (exactly like potential threath), is better since microsoft protect our data i personally trust more Microsoft than the person behind newsguard.
