<strong>Beschrijving</strong> (plak in het tweede veld):

<code>FactRadar is a smart browser extension that automatically checks the reliability of everything you read online.

A floating button appears on every website. One click gives you an instant trust score from 0–100, with clickable sources to verify yourself.

What FactRadar does:
🔍 Fact-check — Analyses webpages and articles via AI and independent sources.
🛡️ Phishing detection — Recognises suspicious websites and emails at three threat levels. Danger triggers a red warning banner.
📧 Gmail protection — Automatically checks every email for phishing, including sender verification.
🖼️ Deepfake detection — Analyses images for manipulation.
😄 Satire recognition — Identifies satirical websites like The Onion so you don't mistake satire for news.
🎓 Scientific sources — Recognises academic and peer-reviewed websites like <a href="https://prod.outgoing.prod.webservices.mozgcp.net/v1/63fffb0f1a3248c13aae57136e874cc0f848860c1e5e4f9aed0751a2e2237ac1/http%3A//nature.com" rel="nofollow">nature.com</a>.
🌿 Lifestyle content — Flags health, sport and diet sites with a recommendation to verify medical advice.
📚 Sources — Every check comes with clickable sources: deeper reading for high scores, rebuttals for low scores.

FactRadar never sends personal data. Only the text of the page is analysed via a secured server.
