Everything is funded in some way or another. If it wasn’t funded it wouldn’t exist. Or it would be biased towards it’s own agenda. This is the same as your point about the IFS.

As for whose science we believe, the sites they have listed are peddling 5g conspiracies and new age health cures so personally speaking I definitely wouldn’t be believing theirs.

It’s possible to exercise discrimination when reading information. Otherwise we would be able to trust absolutely nothing, or we would be gullible conspiracy theorists willing to believe absolutely anything that somebody with an agenda wants us to believe.

Trust nobody. Everybody has some kind of bias, sometimes they're not even aware of it themselves.

Agreed. Usually I listen, there's often a nugget in there somewhere. :D

Believing is another matter. ;)
