Can't this be solved with Wikipedia (who is hosted outside Italy) not showing the IPs of the wikipedians in Italy? Also, I think that these laws will move people to the darknets, like Tor. People aren't going to stop blogging, downloading copyrighted stuff, etc. Tor isn't even hard to install or use anymore.

Darknets are so slow that it pushes away normal people unless absolutely necessary. It's like walking vs. driving.

They are slow for some things, but you can perfectly use Tor for blogging, email, IRC, etc. For video or audio is usually slow.
