Fake Facts - Aleenah

 Fake Facts

These are categories people use when sharing fake facts and information. I have written in this table what they are and what they mean. I hope you don't use these or come across on them!

 

Misinformation

Malinformation

Disinformation

Misinformation is information that is wrong and not facts but it’s not really meant to hurt anybody at all so it’s not really such a bother to share misinformation. Most of the time it’s for comedy.

Malinformation is supposed to harm somebody. They use this as a way to cyber bully and share private information. It is usually provoked by maybe a hate speech.

Disinformation is a mix of both misinformation and malinformation. This is intentionally false and is to cause harm to people. This dangerous act is deliberate to try and manipulate you to think a certain way.
