Subject: [New Report] Italy blocks Gutenberg book publishing website
Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2021 13:08:15 +0200
Hello,
Today, in collaboration with Davide Brunello (independent
researcher), we published a new report which examines the *blocking of
the Gutenberg book publishing website across networks in Italy* based on
OONI data.
Read the report here:

<
https://ooni.org/post/2021-italy-blocks-gutenberg-book-publishing-website/>
Since May 2020, access to the Gutenberg book publishing website has been
blocked in Italy (in compliance with a decree of the court of Rome) over
copyright violation.
The criminal lawsuit is currently ongoing and that does not permit
access to relevant documents that would help with further understanding
the background and situation that resulted in the blocking of
www.gutenberg.org <
http://www.gutenberg.org/>.
OONI measurement analysis shows that access to
www.gutenberg.org
<
http://www.gutenberg.org/> is blocked on at least 7 AS networks in
Italy. Most ISPs primarily block access by means of DNS tampering.
In blocking
www.gutenberg.org <
http://www.gutenberg.org/>, some ISPs in
Italy (e.g Fastweb & Tiscali) return an NXDOMAIN, others (e.g. TIM,
Telecom Italia, Iliad) return the IP address 127.0.0.1, while Vodafone
Italia returns the IP address 83.224.65.170.
Regardless of what is returned in the DNS response, what all ISPs in
Italy (at least those included in this study) appear to have in common
is the *lack of transparency* of the fact that access to
www.gutenberg.org <
http://www.gutenberg.org/> is intentionally blocked.
Internet users just see an error message.
Further details and analysis is available in our report:

Thanks for reading!
