Didn't you just make it more complicated here?
By adding a disclaimer? And at the same time presenting possibly outdated information? And requiring people to verify the information with another source?
While deep down knowing very well, that a lot, if not most, will not double check the information, before they end in an emergency?
And also, verifying for accuracy once does nothing, if the information becomes outdated, between verifying and the time of the emergency.
The simplest solution here, was what they actually did. They removed the information that was the source of the confusion.
- birksherty 5y agoHow disclaimer is confusion? People will have to check anyway without that information available. It is not outdated, just may be, you don't know. Better to have the information available than not. It's simpler than not having it.
