To warm the spirits about the legitimacy and safety of automatic totems for the issuance of new SIM is the Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio who, in a hearing concerning the telecommunications sector, reported on Iliad to Commission on Transport :
As soon as I took office at the ministry, one of the first things that I signed was an order that we sent to Iliad because they must comply with the standard
The law referred to by the Minister of Economic Development and Labor and Social Policy is the Pisanu Law – of which we have largely spoken also on the pages of this site – published in 2005 to limit the possibility of favoring terrorism with easy access to such eCommunications.

A record was also completed in the hands of Matteo Salvini because – according to Di Maio – The use of Simbox would be a theme also related to unfair competition possible . But the main doubts concern the process of activating the new lines:
The SIM card is activated before the registration at the terminal of the identity card or identification document. In reality, the company claims that dynamics is another. As I understand it, the identification document is transmitted in real time to the registration and the SIM is immediately activated.
The same Minister therefore admits that he did not understand the procedure for activating the SIM card which, according to Iliad is proceeding differently: the data entered, the documentary badysis and the video recording are immediately transmitted and verified by an operator who, at a distance, checks the congruence of what has been declared and proceeds, with control, to the activation of the SIM card
We have initiated all the necessary provisions because you will understand that the only risk of having a SIM not registered for illegal use seriously puts us in danger. We continue on this path
It is a subject that will surely remain on the government's agenda, also taking into account the pressure that Iliad's competitors could continue to make. to try to limit the success of the model " Simbox " that the company of French origin imported in Italy.
Only time can tell us if there will be changes to Legge Pisanu (dated 2005 and probably insufficient in the face of the technological progress we have witnessed over the last decade) or if the government will prefer to hinder the innovation of Iliad .
If this last line of thinking prevails, incoherence scenarios would open: indeed, it is difficult to reconcile a line of government attentive to the digital divide, the network and the Internet. Access to the web with a hard line to a company open to innovation and who, with its model, tries to make it easy, eco Simple and easy to communicate.
