Nonreactivity, however, does not ensure that these data are somehow a direct reflection of people’s behavior or attitudes.
I think the worst thing is: it can only a direct reflection of some people's behavior or attitudes(40% or 50% ? I don't know). Mixing with that of people who tend to hide their true feelings on social medias, the measurements may be absurdly inaccurate(Is this a kind of system error?)
