It wasn’t “possibly illegal”, it was just plainly illegal.

    Do you agree with the hits to credibility because outlets run stories about anti-zionism too?

    There are very good reasons not to trust this bot, and rather few to trust it.

      It depends. I haven’t seen those stories. There’s a massive gamut of anti-zionists, from reasonable skepticism and criticism of Israel and its actions to full-on antisemitism. I have seen someone else here state that one organization got bad marks for claiming that Israel is engaging in a genocide, which is completely fair since that hasn’t been proven.

      I don’t disagree on the whole. But I think that putting ‘trust’ in any bot would be silly. However, knowing how right-skewed the bot is and using its blurb as a single data point with that in mind, is better (to me) than just not having it at all.
