4 Comments on “Stopping Mis/Disinformation Vol. 1

  1. I’m sure these are all very effective, but they all sound as if they are limited to ‘process’. Do any of them give any guidance as to how ‘disinformation’ is to be distinguished from ‘new information’ i.e. revisionism. I ask because my own work gets dismissed as the former when in reality it should be dismissed for quite other reasons.

    • Idk. Disinfo is typically defined as purposefully created false info

      If people are calling your work disinfo, my bet is because they think you’re intentionally trying to mislead

      • Yes of course they are. That was my point. How to teach people the difference. A pretty obvious one is the medium being used. If someone is putting it out to thousands, millions over the internet and it didn’t take long to compose then it could be info or it could be disinfo. But if it is in a book taking years to write and will reach a tiny audience then it must be info.
