I told my friend to tell a lie but Truster did not detect it. Why?
“I had lunch with Donald Trump today.” Whenever people install Truster, the first person they call is usually a friend who is aware of their new online lie detector. These are usually situations where people are just joking around and not telling lies that would cause them extreme stress or confusion. Truster is designed to be used in a stress-free conversation where the subject is not planning the lies (i.e. famous Mafia cases). If the subject needs to lie, the need should arise as a surprise, resulting in 95% of the extreme vocal changes that Truster detects. Even the most honest person could be lying to themselves about something, or have difficulties recalling an event accurately. Truster will indicate that this person is either confused or being untruthful.
