Corrections

When we’re wrong,
we say so.

Silicon Canals makes mistakes. When we do, we correct them quickly, transparently, and on the same page where the original error appeared. This page explains how we handle corrections and how to flag one.

How to request a correction

Email corrections@brownbrothers.io with the article URL and a short description of what needs correcting. The more specific you can be (the exact passage, the source for the correct version) the faster we can act.

We review corrections requests against the available evidence, such as a filing, funding announcement, or on-record statement. Material errors and substantial revisions are corrected with a dated note on the article explaining what changed. Minor fixes that do not change what readers were told may be made without a note.

What counts as a correction

  • Correction: a factual or attribution error changed after publication.
  • Clarification: wording added to prevent a reasonable misunderstanding without reversing the underlying claim.
  • Update: new information added after the original publication.
  • Withdrawal: the central premise, attribution or originality cannot stand.

Material corrections and substantial revisions carry a dated note explaining what changed. Minor spelling, formatting and link repairs that do not change what readers were told may be made without a note. When an article is withdrawn, we retain a notice at the original address where appropriate.

Inherited articles

Articles published before Silicon Canals became part of Brown Brothers Media in November 2025 remain part of the historical archive and reflect the reporting and editorial process in place at the time.

We do not treat a technical migration as an editorial update, and we do not add a current editor credit or Brown Brothers Media AI disclosure to an untouched inherited article. When we materially review, correct or withdraw an older article, we add a dated note explaining what changed.

When we won’t correct

We don’t remove articles for editorial reasons unless they contain a serious factual error we can’t fix in place. We don’t adjust pieces to reflect later reader disagreement with a position, only to fix verifiable factual errors.
