TRIPADVISOR, the travel review website, has been fined 500,000 euros (S$806,267) by an Italian regulator for not doing enough to prevent false reviews on its site.

The fine represents one of the first times that a review site has faced financial penalties in Europe or the United States for failing to clamp down on potentially false reviews.
