Fake news; looking for a vaccinee

Keywords: Collaborative spaces, Disinformation, Fake news, Post-truth, Social media, Literature review

Abstract

The dissemination of false information represents a severe threat to individuals, entities, and societies. In response, the study of "fake news" has been intensified, how they are produced, disseminated, and the measures to prevent or reduce its spread. Following the systematic review method, the present research tries to answer questions from different perspectives and under different conceptions: What is fake news? Is there a life cycle for fake news? How is the impact of fake news determined? Additionally, and due to our particular interest in designing safe spaces for online collaboration, we ask ourselves: Is there a relationship between disseminating fake news and the design of the collaborative space in which it is disseminated?
