: Fake news has become a big concern for tech giants like Facebook, Google, Microsoft and others. They are coming up with new ways and methods to stop the growth of fake news.


Now, Microsoft has brought a new feature that will intimidate users if they are reading fake news. The company has started a new feature called NewsGuard in its Edge Browser. The company claims that it will help users recognize fake content.


As mentioned by TechCrunch, in the Microsoft Age Browser on iOS, there will now be a built-in feature called NewsGuard. This feature is not enabled by default, but Microsoft will ask its users to enable it by going to the settings menu.

In the app, users will get an option called News Rating, which can be enabled by users at any time. Currently, this feature is only available for iOS users, but is expected to come in Android.


"Safe Browsing involves providing our customers access to solutions that can help to avoid deceptive content, and so we have to go into NewsGuard within the Microsoft Edge mobile app," Mark Wutier, a group program manager of Microsoft, told the TechCrunch. Is happy to be able to provide the tools. "


With this update about counterfeit content, this tool will also present a report card that will talk about the reputation of those websites that are going to you and also assess the credibility of its content.


Recently, it was reported that Microsoft's search engine has been blocked in China. As told by Financial Times, China Unicom, one of the state-owned telecommunications companies has confirmed that the government has ordered to block Bing. The report says that Microsoft has been asked to investigate this problem. A similar ban was also in 2010, when the Chinese government banned Google's main search platform in the country.
