You all know that you can not believe everything you read on the internet. But with the new service Grasswire, you can control the information that appears to you, through "news" channels.
Austen Allred's new project allows news junkies to confirm and refute breaking news posts. The "newsroom is controlled by everyone in real time" and separates publications on popular news topics, such as the Malaysia Airlines accident in Ukraine and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Once you select a topic, you can vote or vote against posts in Reddit to upload or download them on the page. If you see something wrong, you can refute it by posting a URL from a source that denies the information. You can do the same to confirm a post.
So far, users have been able to control the solvency of a news story through Google's reverse image search. The new service that was officially launched about a month ago gives us another news verification tool.
