  In this note, we present an information diffusion inequality derived from an
elementary argument, which gives rise to a very general Fano-type inequality.
The latter unifies and generalizes the distance-based Fano inequality and the
continuous Fano inequality established in [Corollary 1, Propositions 1 and 2,
arXiv:1311.2669v2], as well as the generalized Fano inequality in [Equation
following (10); T. S. Han and S. Verd\'u. Generalizing the Fano inequality.
