The World Wide Web has changed how we communicate, but it has also led to a rise in misinformation, especially in scientific publishing. The ease of creating online journals has led to the emergence of predatory journals that compromise research quality. While there are efforts to identify these low-quality outlets, the problem remains significant, making it hard for legitimate researchers to navigate the flood of unreliable studies. A vetted list of credible journals could help restore trust in scientific research and ensure that decision-makers rely on sound evidence. However, the challenge of communicating science to the public persists, as easy access to dubious research can mislead discussions.
