« Back to Glossary Index

The internet slang term “Safety Squint” refers to a way of expressing caution or skepticism towards information or situations. It is often used when contemplating the credibility or reliability of something, and can be seen as a form of protective measure to avoid potential harm or deception.

Examples:

I heard about a new miracle diet that guarantees instant weight loss, but I did a safety squint and decided to do some more research before believing it.
This headline seems too good to be true, so I’m going to give it a safety squint and check if there are any credible sources that confirm it before sharing.
