ABSTRACT In the scenario of the digital age, we start from a reflection on the challenges to the preservation of information on the web in view of the hyperinformation that travels through the network, highlighting the paths traveled between information and disinformation. We intend to address aspects of memory in the web space and take the current fake news circulation as an example that illustrates the dialectics of contemporary sociotechnical freedom. In this context, we highlight the relevance of studies of "critical information literacy" undertaken by Information Science researchers, which help to understand how the information transmitted on the Internet serves the specific purposes of certain agents and political groups, reinforcing intrinsic power elements of information regimes.
Keywords: Hyperinformation; Memory; Preservation; Critical Information Literacy; Digital Age.
