THE REDCORE BROWSER, which its developers claimed to be the first domestically produced browser with self-developed core technology, was revealed to be based on Google Chrome. Science and Technology Daily comments:
It was almost immediately after the browser's developers announced success in a new round of fundraising that it was found to be fake. Some people extracted its installation document folder and found it contained Google Chrome files.
Beside that, the resumes of its main developers, including education and past job experiences, were also found to be fake.
