Usage examples

desinfo
Usage examples
  • Nii, nagu pole küberrünnakute vastu võimalik saada riigisektoril, erasektoril ega meedial igaühel omaette toimetades, nii ei saa ka teabepesu ja desinfo rünnakutega võideldes ükski neist sektoritest üksinda edukas olla.
disinformation
Usage examples
  • Disinformation is a powerful and inexpensive – and often economically profitable – tool of influence. To date, most known cases have involved written articles, sometimes complemented by authentic pictures or audiovisual content taken out of context. But new, affordable, and easy-to-use technology is now available to create false pictures and audiovisual content (so called "deep fakes"), offering more potent means for manipulating public opinion.
  • Problems of disinformation are deeply intertwined with the development of digital media. They are driven by actors — state or non-state political actors, for-profit actors, media, citizens, individually or in groups — and by manipulative uses of communication infrastructures that have been harnessed to produce, circulate and amplify disinformation on a larger scale than previously, often in new ways that are still poorly mapped and understood.
