According to the Indonesia survey institution's KIC survey, there are 30-60% of people in Indonesia exposed to fake news on the internet. Meanwhile, there are only 20% of the people that able to identify fake news. I would love to invent an application that identifies fake news. And I hope this invention will reduce the exposure of fake news to 0%.
