On 15 February 2023, Italian regulator Consob announced that it ordered six abusive financial websites to be blacked out. The total number of black-out orders increase to 839. Consob has been authorized by the so-called “Growth Decree” to order ISPs to inhibit access from Italy to illegal financial websites.
