In another regulatory measure, Italy’s communications ministry is probing into pornography available on Hutchison Whampoa’s 3 Italia mobile telephone network. A TV network had reported that the X-rated images could be downloaded by children on 3 Italia’s network. The ministry has also invited the Italian judiciary to regulate the mobile content sector more closely. “The ministry has decided to examine the services offered by the telephone company 3 Italia … with particular attention to the use of video content over mobile phones,” the communications ministry said in a statement.
