Nowadays, the Internet has become a source of information for many people doing all sorts of research. However, judging the veracity of information you find online can be a little tricky, especially if you're looking for credible material. Today it so happens that fiction and reality are not the same thing, but on the Internet it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between "fake news" and real, trustworthy sources. Fake news sows panic, encourages unrest and rash action, misleads, deceives and creates a persistent sense of anxiety and uncertainty in people...

It's not always about auspicious moments. Rasmus Kleis Nielsen, director of the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, admits that while scientific disinformation makes up a relatively small part of a news feed's nutrition, it can cause disproportionate harm. Lack of trust in official institutions is a big driver of disinformation, he says. In October 2020, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres announced the launch of a global online action that called on people around the world to stop the flow of misinformation online...

Analyzing the situation on the stock market is the first thing traders think about before buying or selling digital assets. To date, the main tool for this is the index of fear and greed. Market participants are almost always driven by emotions, on the basis of which a person opens or closes a deal. Fear appears when there are risks that the position will not be opened on time or that trading will have to be stopped before the previously set limit / stop. And it turns out that the index of fear and greed when trading cryptocurrency is often crucial...

Fear and greed are the two main driving emotions in the market. Fear is born when the thought arises that the deal will not be opened on time or, for example, will have to be closed earlier, even before the stop or limit is reached. Greed, like fear, can influence decisions made in trading: make you increase leverage, play big, ignore risks. Every day, we analyze emotions and moods from different sources and combine them into one simple number: the index of fear and greed. The behavior of crypto market players is very emotional...

Warren Buffett warned: “Be careful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are cautious." It remains to understand the mood of the crowd. The mood of traders (“the crowd”) is one of the main driving factors in the financial markets. At the same time, its correct assessment allows you to make the right trading decisions even before a clear change in the behavior of assets. Analysts are constantly trying to create tools (indices, indicators) that would give a visual representation of market sentiment...

To date, the Internet is the most popular source of information, the main advantages of which are considered to be: prompt availability of information and information exchange without borders. Despite the undeniable positive aspects, the information of the Internet space is unreliable and chaotic, the argumentation of various statements may be incorrect, the interpretation of the facts is distorted. There are many examples of misinformation. First of all, this problem concerns the news sphere. False information can be synthesized by special bot programs specifically designed for this purpose...

For centuries, people have shared important information with each other. Our ancestors warned their relatives about the onset of a storm, the approach of a wild beast or an enemy. Thanks to this, they survived themselves and saved others. And today, after reading the news, believing in it and pressing the repost button, the user feels that he has done a good deed, which at the same time cost him nothing. The consequences of believing false information are harmless. For example, one of the false...

Trust is a rather difficult feeling for a person to understand, but it carries an important role in the process of communication between people and life in society. Everyone in this world has their own ways of “feeling” trust, which are based on the personal perception of a person by a person, but in Internet communication this can be very difficult. The Internet gives us an unlimited resource space, including the freedom of interpersonal communication between people, regardless of distance, allowing us to ensure our own safety to the subject, giving the right to anonymity...

The demand for social networks is growing every day, pulling into its arms more and more people of all ages...

Modern media offer a huge amount of information. It is almost impossible to measure the amount of false information: fakes have replaced pure lies. At the same time, the number of messages aimed not at informing, but at attracting attention is growing. This directly affects the consumption of content - instead of information, people perceive advertising of events, politicians and their interests. Trusting fakes can lead to wrong steps. The problem is that distinguishing a fake message from an ordinary lie is much more difficult, since it disguises itself as the truth...

If fake news is written, then someone needs it. What for? To create hype and harm to competitors. Companies can spread fake news about their products to boost sales. Often not even on their own behalf. Big news, attractive product, fake comments. Black PR is also PR, bad news draws attention to the subject of discussion just as good as good news. The main thing is to talk about them. The reverse side is when false information about other people's failures is spread. For example, Coca-Cola faced the spread of a fictitious report on the content of parasites in soda...
