Check your DNS
Personal recommendation: https://ipleak.net is a good website to check your DNS, torrent protection, and some more useful info.
And you need to configure protonvpn correctly so it uses their DNS. In the VPN world this is known as a 'DNS leak'.
Probably because of your DNS configuration?
I'm thinking it must be a DNS configuration issue... Every server with ProtonVPN is showing the same, from the US to Netherlands to Switzerland. All of them.
Someone described to me in detail how your computer resolves hostnames.

Switch to cloudlfare DNS or something similar.
My brother in Christ do not spread disinformation x)
I can access it without even using any vpn, just changed dns a lot of time ago and I never get that piracywall
Secondo me stai leakando i dns, controlla di averli configurati bene
Pretty sure its because of the piracy shield thingy. Secure Core might be an option as long as no Italian servers are used and you're using the VPNs DNS
“[A]ll parties in any capacity involved in the accessibility of illegally disseminated content – and therefore also, by way of example and not limitation – VPN and open DNS service providers, will have to execute the blocks requested by the Authority [AGCOM],” the notice read.
Yes, it absolutely is a result of the piracy shield thingy. Secure Core does seem to work!
Use a DNS out of your jurisdiction, preferably a privacy focused one, that issue will go away.
In which country is the protonvpn server?
I bet this is ops issue. Either the vpn auto selected the fastest server (probably in Italy) of op defaulted to a local server. Op should change server to a country with more lax rules (Netherlands?).
Nope. Swapped to every other server ProtonVPN has. I'm thinking it might be a DNS configuration issue though, because yeah, I don't understand why a different server wouldn't end run around this.
Try going through TOR to confirm its not a router software thing, if it works, you need another DNS (NextDNS is good) and then try again with Proton, if that doesn't work connect over a proxy or TOR with VPN.
https://www.proxysite.com/ might help as well
Search "what is my ip" on your web search engine to see without and with a VPN connection, to see if you're really going through the VPN tunnel. Seems like you aren't.
Can confirm that the IP address/location appears to change, but the block and AGCOM interception remains.
I'm using windscribe VPN from Italy and it works without issues right now
