litrl/litrl_code: Litrl Browser Experimental 0.14.0.1 Public

  • 1. Western University

Description

This release contains several improvements and fixes and also the important security update for WebKit based browsers.

The Litrl (pronouned "literal") Browser is a research tool for news readers, journalists, editors or information professionals. The tool analyzes the language used in digital news web pages to determine if they are clickbait, satirical news, or falsified news. All processing is completed on the local machine - clickbait, satirical news, and falsified news results are not sent to or from a remote server. Results may be saved locally to a standard SQLite database for further analysis. Litrl Browser is not perfect and is not always correct. Digital literacy is key for everyone to effectively evaluate potential misinformation online, and the Litrl Browser is NOT a replacement for that. (Initial Release)

This software is pre-release quality and should be used with caution. More information can be found about detector accuracies on the Wiki - we make no claims about their overall accuracy during real-world internet use.

Please see the README file for additional information.
