The World Economic Forum (WEF) has published a report, citing, as part of its annual meeting, "misinformation and disinformation" among the top global "risks" in a report covering the period of the next two years, and of the next decade.

These days, the poorly if at all defined concepts of "misinformation and disinformation" are often used by governments, and (social) media they influence, simply as a "one-size-fits-all" excuse to censor information and stifle free speech.
