No, just a mutual aid request from an agency recognized under law enforcement treaty. There are many agreements for mutual recognition and execution of legal process across national boundaries (normally added as part of trade treaty negotiations but sometimes in things like extradition treaties). Lots of FBI raids outside the US are conducted this way - local police do the raid and have FBI 'observe' them in action. In this case, an EU police force and a 5-Eyes nation like Australia will be zero-friction recipient of assistance.

Someone saved you the trouble of reading it https://ricochet.com/320028/archives/i-read-the-famous-femin...
Many people were confused as to this being satire or not but one of the authors did a Q&A to help clear things up

Real names AND the instant account lock with no hope of reversal if your name failed the opaque real name check. I lost access to a gmail account and everything associated with it because g+ didn't like my name. Account totally locked. Gone. Forever.

But for compliance many interpretations say it's EU /citizens/; I don't think there are 3 simple steps to block any EU citizen...
I'm sure many Governments would love to be able to so simply identify what their citizens do online though.

For young people (I assume you count in that category since you're just leaving college - if not, I apologies and still recommend you), set aside all that you may have heard about the author and sincerely read :

Looks like "The United States and Great Britain are two countries separated by a common language" applies.
Origin unclear but according to https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/English_language attributed to George Bernard Shaw.
I read the original and did not pick up the nuance until it was pointed out; then the alternative reading was also entirely reasonable even if it was not my first understanding. The cultural ambiguity of English at it's best.

Sure, wait a month then go to a starbucks store and peacefully and politely hang out for a few hours without purchasing anything. If nothing happens up till then, try to use the restroom too. Then hang out some more before leaving.
If you don't spend the night in jail, then you have one data point suggesting not PR.
Have a reasonable sample of people repeat the experiment in multiple locations and multiple times and carefully record and report the results to you.
Collate the data points and report on the number of people arrested during the experiment.
Feel free to include Starbucks in a tweet about your results when you publish.

Looks like this is a follow up to previous HN submissions

and
"We’re not naming the affected organizations to limit the risk of exposing patient data."
However, a google inurl:dicom search sure shows up the affected organizations on the first page (and plenty pages after that).
And the sites are still fully open. Absolutely zero hacking required.
A lot of organizations had better get to work fast on this.
