Poison-pen letters in The Moving Finger are the equivalent of today's social media trolling.Their words
Sending poison pen letters is an old fashioned thing, but they come bang up to date if you think of them as the equivalent of social media trolling. The impact on people’s lives of complete falsehoods being spread about them is devastating.

I wish Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adam’s were alive to write stories for these times, that I could buy and read. With all the swirling bombastic talk about AI that’s perpetually being thrown at us, I’m longing for their take.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
