Summary

Pinocchio Alerts is an extension that warns you if the website you are reading has been reported as inaccurate (because of fake news related to that website). We think the world gets better when we all avoid spreading alternative facts!

We work with several organizations to help stop the spread of bogus news. There is nothing wrong with questioning what we read. Please do your part by checking sources and helping your friends and family do the same.

Hope you enjoy!
