Malinformation is information that is factually accurate but deliberately weaponized — shared out of context, selectively leaked, or strategically timed to cause harm. Distinguished from [[Misinformation]] (false, no intent to harm) and [[Disinformation]] (false, intent to harm), malinformation completes the information disorder taxonomy and includes tactics like doxxing, revenge leaks, and the strategic deployment of true-but-damaging material in [[Propaganda]] campaigns.
