WhatsApp launched a new feature to prevent the spread of fake news.

Whatsapp is constantly trying to stop these fake messages from spreading on its platform.
WhatsApp first imposed the forwarding limit, then started labeling it, which means if a message is being forwarded repeatedly, it will be labeled with two arrow marks.
Now, by bringing this new feature, WhatsApp has again taken another step to stop fake news. So let me show you how this feature works.
Any message that has been forwarded many times on WhatsApp. With the help of its ‘Web search’ feature, you can find the truth of that forwarded message by using the magnifying glass added with that message.

It may also contain articles that will show that the message is fake. This information has been found in the company’s blog post.
Let’s assume that you have a forward message. If a link has been given in that message, then on the right side of that link you will see a button with a search icon. When you click on it, your Google browser will open or your default browser will open and you will be able to get all the information related to that message.
So basically, you just have to do one click. So that you will know the truth of that news and you will know whether this forwarded message is fake or real.
Launched in these countries
At the moment, I do not know when it will be launched in India. But the company will soon launch this feature in India as well. This feature will work on all three versions of Android, ios, and web.
