Extension summary
Don't be tricked by fake news, hoaxes, scams or myths. Quick, simple way to check to see if the current page title keywords are referenced on Snopes.com. Page title alone may not provide accurate search results, however existing debunked articles on Snopes.com did include page title keywords. I hope to build this out further to detect items on the current page that may already exist on Snopes.com and other fact checking websites.
User reviews
It just appears to be a link to the Snopes website. It is a terrible and pointless extension.
Just a link to the Snopes website.
Not to mention Snopes is filled with Left wing biases, which of course occasionally distort the way they fact check various sites.
Great extension - does exactly what it's supposed to. I'm going to have to share this one!
