Extension summary

There are many websites that are spreading fake news, rumours and false information in order to gain visitors and earn money. Viewing these websites is dangerous for you because they don't tell the real story.

Khabardar maintains an extensive database of such websites, researched by our team that is working day and night to make sure that such unreliable websites don't ruin the hard work of a few genuine news sources that do proper research. Installing and using Khabardar doesn’t slow your browser, it’s easy to use and free

If you land on a site that has a reputation for spreading false information, Khabardar shows you a warning. Khabardar guides you, but the final decision is yours: you can still view the contents of the website and hide the warning.
