Not fake news. The original hair tie was called a Scunci. It was named after the designer's dog. Since then, knockoff brands have come out with the misspelled version due to the common mispronunciation. But those of us who use them know the correct, original name.

Duck Tape is an actual brand of tape. The tape has been called duck tape since 1899 and duct tape since 1965, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. It was originally made of cotton duck fabric. It was used to waterproof ammo boxes in World War II. The tape called duct tape now is not used for duct work. They use a metal tape for that.
