Yair Netanyahu, who has caused controversy for past social media posts, was also ordered by Jerusalem Magistrates' Court judge Dorit Feinstein to delete the doxing tweet.
Reacting to the ruling, Yair Netanyahu, 29, said Feinstein had "totally ignored" evidence presented by his defense, including of threats against him by protest leaders.
A staunch defender of his father, Netanyahu junior caused controversy in 2018 when he was recorded seemingly drunk outside a strip club talking about a natural gas deal reached by the Israeli government.
He has also previously posted on Facebook about alleged conspiracies against his family.
