The Authority has long been at the forefront on this front: we can act both ex officio , as we did by launching an initial investigation into Mia Moglie and Phica.eu, which was subsequently overturned by the closure of the portals, and following reports from those involved.

Commenting to ANSA on the issue of sexist websites where thousands of users are posting stolen photos of women —including those of prominent politicians—which have subsequently sparked a flurry of offensive and violent comments, Ginevra Cerrina Feroni, vice president of the Privacy Authority, said she was convinced that "we are faced with extremely serious matters, which put at risk the dignity, correct representation, and reputation of individuals, involving sensitive data such as that relating to their intimate lives."
