Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Are Fact-Checking Tools Reliable? An Evaluation of Google Fact Check

arXiv:2402.13244v2 Announce Type: replace
Abstract: Fact-checking is an effective approach to combat misinformation on social media, especially regarding significant social events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the U.S. presidential elections. In this study, we evaluated the performance of Google Fact Check, a fact-checking search engine. By analyzing the search results regarding 1,000 COVID-19-related false claims, we found Google Fact Check not likely to provide sufficient fact-checking information for most false claims, even though the results obtained are generally reliable and helpful. We also found that the corresponding false claims of different fact-checking verdicts (i.e., "False", "Partly False", "True", and "Unratable") tend to reflect diverse emotional tones, and fact-checking sources are likely to check the claims in different lengths and using dictionary words to various extents. Claims addressing the same issue yet described differently are likely to obtain disparate fact-checking results. This research aims to shed light on the best practices for performing fact-checking searches for the general public.
