There is growing concern among global net users about fake news online, according to a BBC World Service poll.
It also indicates mounting opposition to governments stepping in with regulation.
In the survey of 18 countries, 79% of respondents said they worried about what was fake and what was real on the internet.
But in only two countries, China and the UK, did a majority want their governments to regulate the internet.
The BBC carried out a similar survey in 2010.
