Trustnet: Assessing Article Accuracy Made Easy
Trustnet is a free browser extension developed by Farnaz Jahanbakhsh that allows users to assess the accuracy of different articles. Designed as part of a research project, this extension aims to help users make informed decisions about the reliability of online content.
In addition to assessing accuracy, Trustnet also allows users to inquire about the accuracy of an article. This feature can be used anonymously or tied to your name, and by default, your inquiries will be visible to those you have marked as trustworthy. Alternatively, you can specify individuals whom you would like to ask about the accuracy of a particular article. They will receive an email notification and can provide you with an answer.
Trustnet is an invaluable tool for those who value accuracy and want to navigate the online world with confidence. By leveraging the assessments of others and contributing your own, you can play a part in promoting trustworthy information and combating misinformation.
