need a browser add-on that just does the image search and annotates image provenance inline, call it a miscaptcha, could probably identify photoshopped and deepfaked images, too, with a little more effort on the image search backend.  Speaking of which, image search could provide a full history of images that go viral, when and where they came from, turned up, how frequently, which malware exploits they're carrying, etc..  All this information could be presented in a mouse over pop up.  Would be what the browsers would already do if they were interested in educated and informed internet users.

Remember the one about the stupid email scammers writing in broken english in order to bias their respondent populations to the least discriminating sub-groups?   Isn't that the essence of targeted advertising?  Find me the people who are stupid and naive enough to fall for <this>.  Mustn't educate or inform, it might disturb the metrics.

2017 Chemistry Olympiad. 
https://cen.acs.org/articles/95/web/2017/07/US-team-makes-history-IChO.html

The US students won 4 gold medals. 

from the article: 
The medals were announced during the closing ceremony on July 14. Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) was the only other country to receive four gold medals. The top scoring gold medal went to a high school student from Russia. In total, 297 students from 76 countries participated in the weeklong competition. The IChO committee awarded 36 gold medals, 65 silver medals, and 95 bronze medals.

(and Park is probably a Korean American name)

A good journalist checks their sources ;-p  ja ja ja
