Italy
Virtual child pornography is punished with up to a third of the sanctions for real life child pornography. Virtual images are defined as: images, or part of images, produced and modified with software from actual photos of minors, where the quality makes it so that fake situations are manipulated and appear as realistic. Therefore, lolicon, shotacon, and cartoon pornography in general are not included.

“When intimacy followed love in Italy there were no longer any vain pretensions between two lovers.”

“In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed—they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!”
