Something I've always wondered about stories of accounts being portrayed as "from" a certain country, my impression has always been that things like location and ip address data can be spoofed to make it appear that you are in a location other than where you actually are.
Does anyone happen to have technical depth in this area? Is it known with high certainty that it is impossible to spoof this information and then make posts from a social media account (Yes/No/Maybe)? (And, how is it known?)
