Avoiding credulity, being more critical about what you see, because if you are not fully convinced you should not believe what you see.

I can avoid being fooled by fake videos if I:

Check the source.
Check the description or maybe the comments.
Watch the video twice and see if something is unusual.

⭑Arianna Bassanini⭑

ariannabassanini65 — 2022-02-17 16:48:14 UTC

Verifying the information, you don't have to believe everything, if you want to verify it you should watch for the source where it comes from.

Isabel Villavicencio

isabelvillavicencio65 — 2022-02-17 16:50:00 UTC

When we see something strange we should check the source and them search in another sources. Try to be more crytical

Remembering that all the things that you see internet cannot be real, verify from where page did the information came from and also remember that you don't have to believe everything you see.

Luciana Mendoza

lucianamendoza65 — 2022-02-17 16:53:23 UTC

Before watching a video, see if the information is true, when entering a web page see if it is verified, guide you through the comments of the video.

There are many fake videos where they say, sell or tell things that are false, and what they really do is to steal.
To stop this I would:

Verify if the information is true.
If it is a website to buy I would look at the reviews they give.
And lastly see if the website is certified.

I can avoid being fooled, by checking where the video comes from, if the website it's safe, check the coments and watch the video again, knowing that not everything on internet it's true, a lot of things are fake ;)

Personally I think it is not real, due to the quality of the video is quite poor, and the camera moves too much, but at the same time if it is fake I have to admit, that people are photoshop gods.

Isabella Rizzo

isabellarizzo65 — 2022-02-17 17:05:34 UTC

It could be that it's fake, it looks real, but the camara moves too much, and the quality of the video it's not good enough, but it would be really difficult to edit the video since the camara it's moving a lot, anyways the video is cute <3

Rochelly Vinueza

rochellyvinueza65 — 2022-02-17 17:07:44 UTC

I think its real but I'm not sure, because I don't think that a pig can move a goat, but the video also looks real

Checking the sources

Arianna Trujillo

ariannatrujillo65 — 2022-02-17 17:08:10 UTC

It seems weird because the pig came it out of nowhere, and I don't think that the pig is strong enough to push the goat.

Luciana Mendoza

lucianamendoza65 — 2022-02-17 17:08:11 UTC

I think it may be real because it look very real, I don´t think they edit a pig in the water that well.

⭑Arianna Bassanini⭑

ariannabassanini65 — 2022-02-17 17:08:16 UTC

I don't know, the video quality isn't very good, so I don't know what was really going on there, if it's real, it could be trained animals or maybe it's actually real. In the end, the video leaves a nice message about how loyal animals can be.

Isabel Villavicencio

isabelvillavicencio65 — 2022-02-17 17:08:35 UTC

I think it's fake because it looks too weird. Why is there a goat there? Why is there a pig there? Why is the goat scared at first and the pig just swims by the goat and they just come out of the water? first the goat does not know how to swim, and then yes?

María Alejandra España

mariaespana65 — 2022-02-17 17:09:24 UTC

It probably the video could be true but we can almost see what's happening and the quality is bad, but the pig and the goat, i don't know why, it looks real.

Gabriel Cabezas

2022-02-17 17:09:33 UTC

Fake, because the quality its really bad and also the person that is recording moves to much

- Amelia Lazo Chung -

amelialazo65 — 2022-02-17 17:09:58 UTC

After much thought and re-watching of the video personally I think this video its real, because if you have photoshop and you are good at it maybe some people will believe you, but I don't think you can get to the point of looking so real. But I am still undecided, as the video quality is very bad.

Considering the veracity of what they announce, avoiding advertisements from pages, strange or unknown places and if there is the possibility to review what others say

I think it is false since although the video does not seem to be edited, the camera looks somewhat distorted, in addition to moving a lot and it seems as if something or someone took the pig from below moving it towards the shore

Wladimir Sánchez

The video that we chose is the Snowboarder Girl Chased By Bear. After thinking and reflecting on this video, we conclude that this video is false, since there are many factors that show us what we are thinking, for example: The bear is obviously CGI and also the sound that the bear makes are stock sounds that everyone can find on the internet.

Matias Rosero

matiasrosero65 — 2022-02-23 15:22:03 UTC

I think it's real but I'm not completely sure, because the quality is very low and I don't think a pig can move a goat.
