That's not what disinformation means. Disinformation is a polite way of saying lies [1].

Why doesn't Snowden speak about the horrors of the Russian war in Ukraine where woman and children are raped and shot?
He only speaks when it is beneficial for his masters.
I thought and still think that Snowden is a brave and righteous man for airing the US government's dirty laundry.
Not him becoming a Russian citizen, but rather his silence on the bloody war of Putin, however, makes me think that I should take Snowden's words with a pinch of salt.
That he is not openly endorsing the current government might be as much latitude as he is allowed.
Snowden knows he is being watched closely. I suppose that is itself a reason to take what he says with a grain of salt, but I certainly don't take his silence on the Ukraine war as evidence of assent.
Telegram is also an app that is widely used by Russian troops to organize and also for dissemination of propaganda and misinformation. It's just not characteristic of Snowden to endorse apps that could potentially be honeypots/backdoored, and to equate such apps as important to free speech.
This tweet is literally plain propaganda move, as it has little to do with human rights... and Snowden has been a treasure trove of Russian sponsored propaganda lately.
To the point of me thinking that his Twitter is just some FSB agent writing posts for him.
