A bill that will compel service providers to block IPTV providers, no matter how they are involved, will soon become law in Italy.

In response to plenty of Italians opting to pirate Football (Soccer) matches, and so deny the government taxes on overpriced stadium food, drinks, and the like, the Italian government is making it so they can "order service providers, including network access providers, to disable access to content distributed illegally online, by 'blocking the resolution of domain names using the domain name system (DNS) and blocking the routing of network traffic to IP addresses uniquely intended for illicit activities.'"
