Fakenews.pl is one of the few fact-checking organizations in the world actively present on TikTok. As experience shows, the fake content that appears on TikTok often overlaps with that on Facebook, Twitter or YouTube. For that reason, the project team decided to create a Quick-Reaction-Fact-Checking Team to combat disinformation across all these platforms, with a special focus on TikTok as the most popular one.
