"The team's software, designed as an extension for Google's Chrome browser, will display a warning screen when someone enters a site known to disseminate fake news. It also will alert a reader if a story shared on social media is fake or biased."


So will it really work? MSNBC? CNN? NYTIMES? They'll go broke if people heed the warnings.

Chrome, worst browser ever.
