CORONAVIRUS: FREE DIGITAL SERVICES, INCLUDING FILMS, GIGA AND MAGAZINES

The Government has been very clear regarding the issues related to the Coronavirus: we must not leave the house, except for reasons of primary necessity (you can find all the details on the official website of the Ministry of Health ). Put simply, a little "effort" is required of all of us, in order to resolve the situation as quickly as possible. From this context came an incredibly positive response from companies, which are providing countless services to citizens for free.

There is really everything, from video streaming services to smart working tools, through magazines, e-books and much more. The main possibilities are listed directly on the official website of Digital Solidarity, an initiative of the MID (Minister for technological innovation and digitization) and of the AgID (Agency for digital Italy), but there are also other companies that have decided to make their contribution outside the pages of the aforementioned portal .

Let's go, therefore, to take stock of the situation on the digital services available for free and on how to access them.
