A geriatric assault on bloggers in Italy

[Juha-Matti Laurio <juha-matti.laurio () netti fi>]

"Italy's leaders barely understand word processors, let alone the web. Now they've turned against the country's blogger"

And later:

"Recently, Italian lawmakers once again took aim at modern life, introducing an incredibly broad law that would 
effectively require all bloggers, and even users of social networks,
to register with the state. Even a harmless blog about a favourite football squad or a teenager grousing about life’s 
unfairness would be subject to government oversight,
and even taxation – even if it’s not a commercial website."
