No versioning or history of how answers have changed. They even opt-out of archive.org history tracking. They usually only disclose one author, when oftentimes there are many.&lt;p&gt;2) They editorialize many &lt;i&gt;questions&lt;/i&gt;, changing them in such a way that they can give the answer they want to. This is done often by inserting modifiers like &amp;quot;always&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;never&amp;quot; or something similar.</text><parent_chain><item><author>giancarlostoro</author><text>Another fun one I ask when someone brings up Snopes: Who snopes the snopes?
