Spotting Fake and Real Websites – Journal Entry 6

Can you spot three fake websites and compare the three fake websites to three real websites, plus showcase what makes the fake websites fake?

Fake: https://zapatopi.net/treeoctopus/ , https://web.archive.org/web/20161201213424/http://abcnews.com.co/obama-executive-order-bans-pledge-of-allegiance-in-schools/ , http://www.thedogisland.com/

Real: https://hampton.gov/ , https://www.odu.edu/ , https://www.walmart.com/

The fake websites that I listed include misinformation and faulty links, especially with the characteristics of “.net” and lack of security in the HTTP. Dog island is not a real place when exemplifies misinformation.
