ThatsNonsense.com is one of the leading websites on the Internet that deals with debunking Internet hoaxes, hearsay, rumours and fake news.
The site deals with other pressing issues including the impact of social media on society and the various security and privacy concerns that are pushed into the forefront as a result of an increasingly interconnected digital age.
It was founded in 2009 by Craig Charles Haley who currently serves at the website editor and main contributor. The site HQ is based in the lovely county of Somerset in England, near the picturesque Georgian city of Bath. We have a number of contributors including John Gale, Thoman Newman, Caroline Black and David Turner.
