[socialmedia] Italy situation

[Laura N]

Dear all:

The block from SIAE, which started in the Province of Rome, is affecting
all users in Central Italy (Tuscany specifically) also.

According to francesco p. micozzi (works at array.eu
<https://t.co/SWCV503DTB?amp=1>)
@fpmicozzi
Avvocato - Diritto penale, dell'informatica e delle nuove tecnologie:

"Strano un tipo di sequestro limitato a Roma... direi quasi impossibile o
errore"

(Strange a type of kidnapping limited to Rome ... I would say almost
impossible or mistake)

cheers

Laura
