.WORDS disinformation as well as false information are usually used interchangeably. However there is an understated difference in their meaning. Disinformation is actually when inaccurate info is actually spread along with the intent to scam, typically as portion of a co-ordinated project. False information is actually when untrue information is actually unexpextedly spread, for example by duplicating a rumour to a friend or even reposting a dubious case on a social-media platform.
