I just thought about the fact that now, in the time of social media, you constantly see footage of the current ongoing wars. Scrolling through my feed constantly see images and videos form Israel and Ukraine. And other than in older wars, the footage is not only carefully crafted propaganda, but also things normal soldiers shot on their phones. So the question came up which impact this new source of intel has on the actual ongoing combat. How many people have died because of social media posts? Have there been IRL stream snipes?
In the US Gulf War in 1991 they had journalists embedded with soldiers broadcasting live as the attacks were launched. There was a fairly well-known incident (which I can’t seem to find anything about just now) in which some dumb-ass on CNN said where the group he was with was and what they were about to do on live TV and there was a big stink about it. I dunno if anyone was actually hurt as a result, but the potential was definitely there.
