Believing any information from internet gotten from one source without further research for confirmation is absolutely wrong especially nowadays that information from internet is actually misleading. I ran into serious trouble when I was trying to get cure for keloid I developed on my skin from youtube video.

Online Misinformation


One major word is Wikipedia! The best of them include the truth here and there.

Indeed, Wikipedia is not and will never be a reliable source. But it can be a secondary source for informal arguments and knowledge, but its better to look for other sites as much as you can, and avoid wikipedia.

Theres a reason why wikipedia is never been accepted as source for researches for these past years

There are informations one can get from a trusted source and you will not think of making any further investigation about it,when you'll believe it correct.I know most informations online can mislead,but there are some sources,blogs that do not post wrong informations.

But when one finds out that an information from a particular site is wrong,it is a lesson for that individual not to rely on a particular site for information,he must do further research to ensure that his findings are true.Nevertheless there are some manners in which these bloggers present their information atimes,that if you are not enquisitve about researching more,you will be lead astray.So therefore,we must be watchful about informations we find online.

The internet seems to be the best and reliable source of information overload, but the bitter truth is that, most information online are mostly Sugar-coated as well galvanized with lies, reporters are being paid to give an information the way the rich wants it.
I can attest to the fact, during the pandemic the death rate and Covid rate was totally altered to an extent in some Countries so as to make funds and other selfish interest of the Politicians definitely.
Information gotten online should be gotten from the source before totally agreement with the piece of information.

And the most annoying is that, typically your aunt/s or uncle/s are the one spreading this to your family group conversation. Like they are saying "Look at this, I am concerned about you guys so I will spread nonsense that may help you"

Their goal of sharing information is good. but the problem is when they don't filter the information they receive. Today's online media make any news for the sake of traffic. they make news that will make them go viral. even things that don't make sense are made as attractive as possible and can be trusted even though they are hoax . Now what must be educated is the person. because online media is already a lot of strange and excessive in making headline or news.

There are websites that promote hoaxes and conspiracy theories on purpose, just to attract visitors, in order to generate income. On top of that, such posts are being shared numerous times, and reproduced by conspiracy theorists, reaching an extremely wide audience. It's really disturbing and in those cases, charges should be put to the creators of that content.

Those spreading irrelevant information I think they do that to trend some have taking it to be a hobby.  Bloggers or some think spreading fake news and write is the only way which money can be generated for them. This trait is all over the Internet and it is increasing in daily basis.  We should be very and cautious of any information we see on the Internet.
