ScienceInfo.news is an English version of ScienceInfo.fr; the following is taken from the latter.


"Here, you just have to be a little curious and click on this link to find out that this site Scientific Information publishes totally false information or archifausses and more, not even true.

Let it be said once and for all: the site ScienceInfo.fr is a parody site, satirical, anxiety and inconsiderate.

All information set out is, unfortunately for some and fortunately for others fabrications.

In short, everything is false. This will names and quotes attributed to imaginary people or companies imagined.

When the actions and quotes attributed to real people - and the facts about them - they are obviously false and devised to strengthen the grotesque character articles.

In short, do not believe everything they tell you and more so all you read on the internet. Be vigilant ... and remember to smile."
