Israeli High Court Reverses Election Committee Ban on Voter Data Transfer

Israel's High Court of Justice recommended returning the Elections Committee's decision to ban parties from using a voter data recording tool, and the committee, where the coalition holds a majority, reversed its earlier decision to approve the tool. The tool allows recording voting data and transferring it to parties, raising privacy concerns. Further petitions to the High Court are possible, which would examine the legality of reporting on citizens who do not vote at all.
