Mafia Bosses Could Cause Italy's Blocking of Facebook

Kristen Nicole — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 17:46:27 +0000

Looks like being a mobster-lover doesn’t pay off in the world of Facebook.

The bill has already been passed in the Senate, and would give the Interior Ministry to power to order Internet providers in Italy to remove criminal content within 24 hours, or face a fine that could reach upwards of $300,000.

Provenzano and Riina are allegedly responsible for criminal activities in Italy, including the ordering of the assassination of Italian magistrate Giovanni Falcone in 1992. Riina is in fact serving 12 life sentences and has been in prison since 1993. Yet he is still gaining a good deal of popularity through a Facebook fan page, which now has well over 2,000 members, and Provenzano’s fan page even suggests that he should be made a saint.
