Fatcher - Report Fake News

Fatcher is a free Chrome add-on developed by Fatcher that aims to combat fake news and nonfactual content on the web. With this tool, users can easily report web pages that they believe contain false information, helping to create a more informed online community.

One of the key features of Fatcher is the ability to check if a web page has been reported by others. This helps users identify potentially unreliable sources and avoid falling prey to fake news. The tool records page reports only once, ensuring that unique reports are generated based on the user's browser login information.

By providing a count of reports on a page and the domain, Fatcher empowers readers to make informed decisions about the authenticity of the content they encounter online. In an era where the internet provides access to vast amounts of information, it's easy to lose our way in the vastness. Fatcher helps users navigate through the web by promoting factual and reliable content.

Please note that to use Fatcher, users must be logged into Chrome and have the sync feature enabled. This allows Fatcher to add reports based on the user's email ID, making the process seamless and convenient. Rest assured, Fatcher does not require any login credentials for its own platform.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
