FakeZero: Real-Time, Privacy-Preserving Misinformation Detection for Facebook and X

  • 所有检测在本地完成,数据不上传,保护隐私。
  • 模型小至14.7MB,延迟仅40毫秒,准确率达96.1%。
  • 适合关注信息真实性、想参与研究的普通用户。

社交平台以空前速度传播信息,加速了虚假信息扩散,威胁公共讨论。我们提出FakeZero,一个全客户端、跨平台的浏览器扩展,可在用户浏览脸书和X(原推特)时实时标记不可靠内容。所有计算、DOM抓取、分词、Transformer推理和UI渲染均通过Chromium消息接口在本地完成,个人数据不离开设备。FakeZero采用三阶段训练流程:基础微调与领域自适应训练结合焦点损失、对抗增强和后训练量化。在包含23.9万条帖子的数据集上,DistilBERT-Quant模型(67.6MB)达到97.1%宏平均F1、97.4%准确率和0.996的AUROC,商品笔记本上中位延迟约103毫秒。内存高效的TinyBERT-Quant版本将模型压缩至14.7MB,准确率保持95.7%和96.1%,延迟降至约40毫秒,证明在资源受限下仍可实现高质量假新闻检测。通过提供内联可信度提示,该插件可为政策制定者遏制虚假信息传播提供支持。经用户同意,FakeZero还为研究人员提供大规模真实世界假新闻数据集,推动更鲁棒检测技术的发展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Social platforms distribute information at unprecedented speed, which in turn accelerates the spread of misinformation and threatens public discourse. We present FakeZero, a fully client-side, cross-platform browser extension that flags unreliable posts on Facebook and X (formerly Twitter) while the user scrolls. All computation, DOM scraping, tokenization, Transformer inference, and UI rendering run locally through the Chromium messaging API, so no personal data leaves the device. FakeZero employs a three-stage training curriculum: baseline fine-tuning and domain-adaptive training enhanced with focal loss, adversarial augmentation, and post-training quantization. Evaluated on a dataset of 239,000 posts, the DistilBERT-Quant model (67.6 MB) reaches 97.1% macro-F1, 97.4% accuracy, and an AUROC of 0.996, with a median latency of approximately 103 ms on a commodity laptop. A memory-efficient TinyBERT-Quant variant retains 95.7% macro-F1 and 96.1% accuracy while shrinking the model to 14.7 MB and lowering latency to approximately 40 ms, showing that high-quality fake-news detection is feasible under tight resource budgets with only modest performance loss. By providing inline credibility cues, the extension can serve as a valuable tool for policymakers seeking to curb the spread of misinformation across social networks. With user consent, FakeZero also opens the door for researchers to collect large-scale datasets of fake news in the wild, enabling deeper analysis and the development of more robust detection techniques.
