Project Gutenberg Public Domain Library Blocked in Italy For Copyright Infringement:
Project Gutenberg, a volunteer effort to digitize and archive books, is sometimes described as the world’s oldest digital library.
Founded in 1971, Project Gutenberg‘s archives now stretch to a total of more than 62,000 books, with a focus on titles that entered the public domain after their copyrights expired. The library does carry some and in-copyright books but these are distributed with the express permission of their owners.
The project has an excellent reputation and its work is considered a great contribution to education and culture. However, it now transpires that the site has been rendered inaccessible by ISPs in Italy under the instructions of the Public Prosecutor at the Court of Rome.
[...] The seizure/blocking notice states that all of the targeted domains “distributed, transmitted and disseminated in pdf format, magazines, newspapers and books (property protected by copyright) after having illegally acquired numerous computer files with their content, communicating them to the public, [and] entering them into a system of communication networks.”
[...] “The investigation, conducted by a special unit of the Guardia di Finanza, has been developed in the context of monitoring the targeted Internet networks to combat economic and financial offenses perpetrated online.
“In this context, the operators identified some web resources registered on foreign servers which make content and magazines available to the public early in the morning, allowing users to view or download digital copies,” the court document reads. (translated from Italian)

Leftists have to put up with hypocrisy because we were flirting with soviets. You cannot be left and support current leftists, you cannot be right and support those who voted for EU and allied with leftists to fight cinquestelle.
1943-1994 lefties abhor the tricolor flag because Fascism!!! then Lega soars and they adopt it to fight federalism. Lega does a 180deg when immigrants come BTW
1943-1989 lefties love Russia! They kill catholic antifas because they wanted to stay Italian (porzus massacre). Togliattigrad is a russian city named after a leftie. Then comes Putin and OOOOH TRUMP IS IN BED WITH PUTIN THE HORROR... They have been traitors for decades LOL.
Mafia? they have the antimafia champion Saviano, who watches every speck of dandruff of right leaning politicians, to see if it contains a hidden message for the mafia, then the Conte government releases bosses because of covid fears and his reaction is? of course we must be democratic. LOL how about stopping visits and have prison guards doing the same turns as medical staff did in some private nursery house? zero dead there? huh? I defended Saviano till that day, no more. They just use the anti mafia sentiment to promote a modern lifestyle, atomized family, europeism, as opposed to the old catholic order. Not considering that the mafia is quite more jewish-like than catholic (the typical secret society with affiliation rites) and newer than the old order.
The people? The people used to be the CORNERSTONE of lefties. Then the people started disagreeing and now, they call a Minister a bibitaro, guy selling beverages. You know, a prole, it has become an insult. Because now the generation of 68, those who did not even study to get a grade, have the credential to rule, not the bibitari.
Justice? Berlusconi was a mafia guy and they barely scratched him, no matter the 20 year long tirades in the media against each other. Enter Salvini, 48 million euro of fine (tax fine, so you have to prove you are innocent) and their media and tweets write "Salvini give us back the 48 millions". Give back, a fine? no you Pay the fine, it is not stolen money, it is an arbitrary larger amount decided by the tax men because they think you were irregular. Which probably happened, but they punished the organization for the fiscal crimes of the former Bossi management. Responsibility is collective, very nazi of them.
Then, Salvini as interior minister stops migrants as a show, they get him tried for kidnapping. I argue with good friends it is madness, no way they defend the action. Because leftists in good faith. Then tapes emerge (thanks donald I guess) in which the judges literally say "Salvini is right but we must stop him" and talk with leftists in first plural person, We, ours....
Just do your research.
Account abandoned.

I think your definition of "left" is way off. Looks like you're just using it to refer to Russian commies. What you really describe are various competing crooks/authoritarians in a regular turf war, really just scratching at the facade. Real "lefties" are anarchists.

Anarchy is a technique used by leftists to gain power. Promote anarchy; when people become sick of the seemingly random looting and violence they yearn for a strong leader. The strong leader comes in, kills the looters and whomever else he doesn't like, enslaves the remainder and calls it the will of the people. Leftism.

Anarchy is not "looting and chaos". It is rules without rulers, like "good without god", which religious fanatics believe is not possible.

:-) Heh, not even close. Not even possible. Authority is a "right wing" thing. Authoritarianism, from anybody, defines the "right", anarchism the "left". Desire for authority is the opposite of "left".
