The ride-hailing service is now blocked in Italy after a judge ruled Friday that it created unfair competition. 。
Unlike rulings in other European countries, where the use of UberX or the European version (UberPop) has been limited, Italy's ruling blocks all of Uber's services: UberBLACK, UberLUX, UberX, UberXL and UberSelect among them.。
Italy's taxi associations succeeded in winning the ruling after they brought a lawsuit against Uber to court. In addition to its ban against Uber operating, the ruling also prevents Uber from advertising in Italy at all. 。

UPDATE: April 15, 2017, 10:07 a.m. EDT。
Good news for Uber: another judge ruled that Uber can keep operating until the company finishes appealing their total ban. So you can order an Uber in Italy again, for now. 。
"We are happy for the thousands of Italian drivers and riders who can now continue using the Uber app until the court's appeal ruling," Uber said in a statement. "We will continue fighting this judgement in the hope that Italians will be able to enjoy the benefits of modern technology that provides reliable transportation at the push of a button."。
