Not necessarily. All that .com means it that the website that you are accessing is a company hence the .com. With .edu it just means that you are looking at an educational website hence the edu. If you are writing a paper then I would lean more towards a .edu website.

How can you determine if information online is trustworthy?

Check the source of the information to see if it is reputable and reliable. Look for supporting evidence or citations that back up the information provided. Consider the website's domain (e.g. .gov, .edu, .org) as these are typically more trustworthy than .com sites. Additionally, cross-reference the information with other reputable sources to ensure accuracy.

Why are .gov and .edu more reliable?

Because the use of these is restricted. Gov can only be created by the government, and Edu can only be used by registered by accredited educational institutions. Com, Net, Us, Vc, Tk, and many others can be registered by any "Riffraff" that wants one (or two, or three, or....) so these you may not be able to trust as much. Many are quite trustworthy, though--you just can't be as sure from the web address alone.
