#ElMercurioMiente is a small Chrome extension that aims to inform users that the visited webpage is owned by El Mercurio, a prominent media company. Developed by Daniel Corvalán, this free add-on serves as a reminder to users, displaying an alert whenever they access a page owned by El Mercurio. The alert suggests searching for the news on Google News instead.

With this extension, users can easily identify webpages that may have a biased perspective due to their affiliation with El Mercurio. It provides a helpful prompt to encourage users to seek alternative sources of news and to consider different viewpoints.

By alerting users about the ownership of the webpage, #ElMercurioMiente promotes media literacy and critical thinking. It helps users make informed decisions about the information they consume and encourages them to explore a wider range of news sources.
