Finland’s largest online social networking site Suomi24 (“Finland24”), visited by 1,3 million Finns weekly, has started protecting its users with the Web of Trust. Users of Suomi24 will see WOT’s intuitive traffic light icons after links on user discussions, showing which sites are trustworthy according to user ratings.
“Protecting the safety of our users with the best tools available is the number one priority to us. With WOT’s traffic lights guiding their clicking decisions, our users can also stay safe from online threats that automated technology solutions miss, such as phishing, scams, and unreliable content. We’re excited about our cooperation with WOT – we share similar goals and approaches to improving the Internet”, says director Jarno Alastalo from Suomi24.
“WOT’s traffic lights show at one sight which sites are trusted by our users and help Suomi24 users make informed decisions on what sites to use. WOT and Suomi24 both help web users to share knowledge and exchange information on the basis of their own opinions,” says Vesa Perälä, CEO of WOT.
