Publisher’s rating: La vidéo est fausse. Elle n'a pas été diffusée par la BBC, a confirmé la chaîne à la Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa). Le Comité olympique britannique a de son côté assuré qu'il s'agissait d'une fausse information, et s'est dit satisfait des lits fournis par l'organisation.
An e-bike battery brought into a lift caused the lift to turn into a magnetic battery, leading to an explosion !!(Video)
Publisher’s rating: Misleading
The review says the video shows a 2021 incident in Haizhu District, Guangzhou, when a lithium battery from an electric vehicle burst into flames in a lift. It reports that the battery’s thermal runaway—not a magnetic effect of the lift—caused the fire and says the magnetic-battery claim has no scientific backing.

Problemas nos uniformes do Brasil nas Olimpíadas é culpa de troca no governo
Publisher’s rating: ENGANOSO
The post falsely links Brazil’s Olympic uniforms to the change in leadership at the Ministry of Sport. The review says the Brazilian Olympic Committee (COB), a nongovernmental organization, is responsible for providing the uniforms; Riachuelo created this year’s designs with COB, and production began in 2020.

Publisher’s rating: De bewering is fout. De Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation heeft nooit iets te maken gehad met EntoMilk. Het bedrijf erachter, Gourmet Grubb, blijkt ook niet meer actief te zijn.
The review says the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation denied any connection to EntoMilk, and neither EntoMilk nor its producer, Gourmet Grubb, appears in the foundation’s list of past funding recipients. EntoMilk did exist as an insect-based dairy alternative, but the review found no evidence that Gates invested in it.

Publisher’s rating: ஃபேக்ட் கிரஸண்டோ ரேட்டிங்: FALSE
The review reports that the incident occurred in China in 2021 and that local fire authorities attributed it to lithium-battery thermal runaway, not a magnetic effect. An expert said there was no scientific basis for the claim that the battery’s charge could turn the lift magnetic; the review concludes the claim is false.

Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING
Zonnepanelen produceren 300 keer zoveel giftig afval als kerncentrales.
Publisher’s rating: De bron van deze claim vergelijkt afval van zonnepanelen met kernafval, wat niet zomaar kan. Het klopt wel dat zonnepanelen meestal zo’n 25 jaar meegaan. Als een zonnepaneel niet meer bruikbaar is, is het daarnaast de bedoeling dat de apparatuur gerecycleerd wordt.
The review says the claim that solar panels produce 300 times more toxic waste than nuclear power plants is unsupported by scientific research and compares unlike kinds of waste. It notes that some panels contain hazardous substances, while nuclear power produces radioactive waste, and says panels typically last about 25 years and are intended to be recycled.

The review says the man pictured with Chathuranga Abeysinghe is not DSI founder D. Samson Rajapaksa; it identifies him as Nandadasa Rajapaksa, a recently retired Emeritus chairman of Samson and Sons (Pvt) Ltd. The review says Abeysinghe confirmed the identification and that the photo had been reused without his or Nandadasa’s permission.
