What’s the difference between…?
Misinformation is false or inaccurate information that is shared by mistake, without the intent to deceive or cause harm.
Example: Sharing an incorrect photo, quote, or date online because you believe it to be true.
Disinformation is false information that is shared deliberately, with the intent to mislead or cause harm.
Example: Creating or spreading fabricated news stories or political propaganda.
Conspiracy Theories are explanations for events or situations that claim they are secretly being controlled or covered up by powerful groups, without reliable evidence to support them. They often spread online or by word of mouth and can lead people to mistrust official sources or facts. Example: Believing that a government or organisation secretly caused a major event and is hiding the truth, despite there being no credible proof.
True/False?
Question:
If you are concerned about a child but don’t have definite proof of harm, you should wait until you’re sure before recording or reporting your concern.
Answer
False: You should always record and report concerns immediately, even if you’re unsure or only have a small piece of information. The DSL builds a full picture from everyone’s observations.
