Filtering of lies


 The internet is full of information and new information every second of every hour of every day, which is poured into the network growth forever. If the source can be a research scientist involved in the search for a new breakthrough discovery a little boy in his school computer lab, information can be input by almost anyone with basic knowledge of how to use the computer. However, the internet is filled with all kinds of information. Facts and truths to rumors and lies, all kinds of data is entered into the network.

For a student trying to write an extensive research role of some random peculiar issue, this is to be a disaster from now on internet is one of the most commonly used means of investigation. Whether for research by its strict teacher, a report on its ambitious employer, or even a presentation for a Committee, with rumours and lies floating on the internet will be difficult to extract only the truths to your target audience. However there are some methods you can use and as well as to help others who can help you with this tedious task.

The most common method to help you find out if the information that remains is a fact that some formed by rumor by ominous person holding a grudge, or perhaps did it completely by accident by an uninformed student or even something that started out as a harmless joke by a person who was looking for a good laugh, is the use of cross reference. Cross-reference is the first defense for a researcher to dismiss rumors and lies in its investigation of internet. However it is not entirely fool proof it seems.

Cross reference is based on the grounds that if enough people believe that if a certain data is the truth, then, the data called in question must be a fact. But this basis today with the knowledge of how proved to our ancestors, we know for a fact that it is a pretty stupid method to apply to try to find out if if something is a lie or a truth. With the greatest example of how blind people believed the world was flat instead of round while it has been shown to them the world was round by using math and science; observations Since more people thought the world was flat, therefore, concluded that the world must be flat.

You can use another method of cross referencing to him to purify even more data are by cross that refer to your information from different media, such as printing. Again, this can only help with the process of filtering data and is not infallible. Nothing can completely eliminate the information found on the internet, but is much more work for someone put their material poorly investigated in printing as it costs money to locate false information on the internet is free.

However, the best method that you can probably use is your own judgement to see if the information that you find some random rumor or a fact is.
