PM’s Facebook chatbot reinstated after he promises to stop breaking election rules
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Facebook chatbot is reinstated after Likud MK David Bitan promises elections czar Justice Hanan Melcer it will no longer be used to publish poll results, which is illegal on election day. The reinstatement is also conditioned on Netanyahu stopping his illegal radio or television interviews, which are also not allowed on election day.
Facebook said earlier today it had banned the chatbot for the remainder of election day at Melcer’s request, but some two hours later Melcer made the decision to reinstate it.
