Italy: Data Protection Authority issued notice against CamHub over illegal collection and dissemination of videos

On 6 October 2025, the Italian Data Protection Authority issued a notice against ICF Technology, which manages the CamHub website. The authority stated that the website, currently blocked in Italy, streams sexually explicit videos, including private chat rooms. It also stated that collecting and sharing videos illegally recorded from cameras in private Italian homes violates European and national privacy laws. It warned that reactivating the site without the explicit consent of the data subjects could constitute unlawful processing of sensitive personal data and cause serious harm.
