And a perfect example of this was Western analysis of selfies and other social media posts by young Russian soldiers to build up data on Russian military deployments into Crimea several years back.
While the Russian government and military denied Russian involvement, claiming instead that it was rebel/separatist groups, the social media posts pretty much proved beyond doubt that Russian regular army units were being deployed into the contested area.
