Daniel Corcos, Vice-President of Advertising at Gett, discusses that the provider initiated the concept of detailing the interests of the captives being actually imprisoned in Gaza as a way to enhance awareness of their scenario. "We offered the idea to the Hostages as well as Overlooking Households Discussion Forum," he mentions, "and they contacted the prisoners' families to obtain the information." The Online forum gathered the information about the hobbies of the captives, with the permission of the families, and Gett made a random rotation in order that the app will show the activities of unique captives when motorcyclists used the service. Good reception coming from usersCorcos mentions that Gett obtained a large amount of favorable reviews coming from passengers, who located the list of the hobbies of the prisoners to become fairly meaningful. Originally, the program competed a number of weeks, On January 18, the one-year special day of Kfir Bibas, the feature reappeared, showing the activities of Kfir who was nine months old when he was actually kidnapped. "Kfir's leisure activities featured in the application," claims Corcos emotionally, "were grinning and also creeping. It was actually cooling for our team and, I believe, for any individual else that saw it." The attribute once more was reinstated on April 7, the six-month wedding anniversary denoting the start of the war.Displaying the hobbies of the captives in the application acted as a method to deliver the fact of their desperate predicaments to folks engaging in their time.
