It's poorly written. The writer is all over the place. The article starts and ends with discussion about a video series from 2004 which is in no way related to the main story, the primary source is a paywalled article in Italian that we can only hope they're translating accurately, the very first paragraph seems to suggest that there's no proof to anything else specified in the rest of the article and immediately contradicts the headline... I feel like I learned nothing and wasted time by reading this.

ARE there actually honeypot sites being set up by Italian police? I don't know, and apparently neither does the author.
