av Firefox-användare 15221582, för 7 år sedanWhen you first see this, you have a small hope that it wouldn't be biased. But of course this is just another piece of the existing media machine to give legitimacy to the news websites who do as they are told and report events from the perspective of the Established Narrative. Those who report from a different perspective, who objectively speaking are no better or worse, get lower ratings.
At the end of the day, what is "fake news" and what isn't, is entirely dependent on the reader. NewsGuard will tell you if a website is pushing fake news...but only if your political views are aligned with the established narrative. As such it merely acts as a source of authority for such people to call their opposition and their news sources "fake news" rather than actually telling anyone which sites propagate "fake news" from any objective standpoint.
I recommend avoiding this addon if you can think critically already. You don't need a biased source to tell you what is fake or not, your own opinion will suffice. Make up your own mind.

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av shrimpo, för 4 månader sedannow why would you possibly need my card for a free trial ... also you cant even use it " some features may require payment " say it with your chest man , nothing about this stupid addon is free , and from what im seeing in other reviews , this is just a whole scam full of not actually trustworthy news
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 18974620, för ett år sedanNewsguard rates and more globally fact-checking can be simplified as: mainstream is good, independant is ungood. Partial, unfiable, even scam. Must me AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS.

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 14861462, för 2 år sedanI went for the trial w/ credit card. Installed the add-on and it did nothing. I looked around their site for help but found nothing useful. I'm not getting paid to be their QA so I cancelled before the trial was up. Too bad because its a good concept.
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 12596458, för 2 år sedanDoesn't even work without signing up for a free trial, and can't even sign up for a free trial without putting my credit card info in? Pass.
Why does absolutely everything have to be subscription based ? We are already DROWNING in subscriptions. Y'all need a better model. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av MarcS, för 2 år sedanDoes nothing even when all other add-ons are disabled. On Apple Safari it runs fine.
- Betygsatt 5 av 5av JuliaD, för 2 år sedanAn excellent service, well-worth the small monthly fee. It clearly shows the extent to which sites can be trusted, as well as explaining how these decisions are reached.

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 15237927, för 3 år sedanThis plugin is great! I hated having to apply critical thought to the news stories I was reading, so exhausting! Now I browse away in safety and comfort, secure in the knowledge that all my thinking is being done for me by professionals! I really hope ReligionGuard is in the works???
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av SuNin, för 3 år sedanYou have to pay to use it? That seems ridiculous to me. I don't want to sign up for anything, I'm not interested in your free trial of anything. I just want to know if a site can be trusted and what the rating is and what to watch out for.
If you don't have to pay, you still have to sign up, there doesn't seem to be a way to bypass that screen. I don't need some shady company collecting information on my internet search habits. These guys are a data breach waiting to happen. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Paulie, för 3 år sedanEs kann wohl nicht wahr sein, dass auf der Mozilla Seite ein Add-on angeboten wird, welches konservative und andere nicht willkommene Meinungen aus dem Netz zu verdrängen sucht. Ich traue keinem Faktenchecker, dazu sollte jeder halbwegs intelligenter Mensch selbst in der Lage sein.
