How the internet and big data are dominating the world?
------------------------------------------------------------------
Why disinformation is so effective?
Sometimes people are wondering why some people are believing the disinformation? The answer is simple, they want to believe the data, what is shared in the disinformation pages. Who would want to believe, that the decision, what have been promised in the election campaign is wrong? And who would want to believe that the large investment for some kind of base energy concept is wrong, even if we would see the climate changing by looking outside from the window?
The thing is that disinformation is flattering people's self-esteem. The thing, that disinformation pages offer is the polarized or even the false picture of the problem. Things like climate change are always wrong because there is a couple of cold days in the year. And the way how that thing is told is that there is still snow on the ground. The maker of that information is just taking days when the snow is on the ground, and highlight that thing.
This is a good example of the polarized information. The polarization means that the sources are selected to support the agenda, what the writer wants to follow. If there are four snowy days on the ground the thing is told that way that there have been come two meters of snow from skies. In this time the thing is that the non-relevant but impressive detail is covering, that there are only four snowy days in the year.

How the internet and big data are dominating the world?
Sometimes people are saying, that big data is the biggest threat for people. The reason for that thing is that the internet involves a massive mass of data. A large number of bits doesn't mean that data is confirmed or made by using trusted sources.
All the time we can read the news that some first line leader has used or shared data, what is not confirmed, or what involve errors. But the problem is that a large number of data requires the will and ability to find information, and this makes the disinformation more effective than ever before. This thing makes the use of big data more complicated than ever before.
This means that the homepages, what involve hoax information can be in the very high in the PageRank even the information that those homepages would share is a hoax. The reason for that is that the page rank of those homepages can rise by using automatized clicks to those homepages. So the click of the mouse would hit more often to those homepages than before.
And then another thing is that those homepages can play, that they are representing the government. That means those homepages are looking like trusted because western people are believing, that they have the right to believe their government. So they don't realize that the disinformation can be delivered in the name of the government.
In those cases, the homepages are faked to be like the official governmental pages. That thing denies the governmental responsibility to those homepages, which are always made by some private operators. So the government would close those net pages. But they would wait, until the report of that information has been given by other governments.
And that is the problem with big data. Even if the data itself is proven wrong, millions of users have been shared that data. So the fake information would sink the confirmed and right data below it simply by covering the internet with the multiple fake information pages. And the faked data can be shared from the multiple platforms, which makes closing the pages extremely difficult.
The thing that makes those homepages dangerous is that there are many times links to the pages that are involving things, which are impressing the youngsters. That kind of thing is meant for making sure that the links to those pages are shared. And the other thing is that if some person plays the games, what are in those homepages that rise the page rank, and make that kind of pages easier to find.
