TL;DR Summary

Italy's biggest influencer, Chiara Ferragni, has been fined one million euros by Italy's anti-trust authority for misleading claims related to the sales of a Christmas cake that she said would raise money for children with bone cancer. Ferragni, who has nearly 30 million followers on Instagram, promoted the cake as a charity initiative, but it was revealed that only a small portion of the proceeds would actually go to the hospital. She has made a public apology and plans to donate one million euros to the hospital, but also intends to challenge the fine. The case has attracted significant negative publicity and criticism, including from Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
