While there is absolutely an enormous amount of misrepresentations or plain lies pushed by russian outlets, I'm worried that there might be too much temptation to use the current climate to control the narrative and label anything inconvenient as "disinformation".
I remember reading a few days ago a warning that cyber attacks of german government agencies are to be expected in the near future and that attackers could use the obtained knowledge in disinformation campaigns.
Of course enemy psyops could always use leaked information as a "grain of truth" to make a fabricated message seem more credible - however, I think if any kind of leaked classified information is automatically termed "disinformation", we went too far. At least, in such a climate, I don't know how something like the Snowden leaks would have been possible.
