In the published article, there was a terminological error in Figure 1. The graphical representation incorrectly used the term "disinformation", while the entire article consistently addresses the phenomenon of "misinformation". This was a translation error during figure preparation. In Portuguese, both "misinformation" and "disinformation" are commonly translated as *desinformação*, which led to the unintentional misuse of terminology in the image. A corrected version of Figure 1 has been provided, replacing "disinformation" with the accurate term "misinformation." The correction does not affect the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
