From the article :
"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.

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

You've got it, there's even a paper on this regarding glaciology see https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/030913251562336...
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.

Well, you're clearly not woke then.

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.

Anyone who was not in the area will be excluded from the list, therefore letting the police know where I wasn't at the time.
No, at best this only shows that your google linked device (presumably a phone) did not have location information for that area at the specific time.
Alternatively it suggests the device could have been switched off/disconnected from the network to hide your presence - making you really a suspect of interest if your name comes into the investigation for some reason.
Dragnet approaches to law enforcement are inherently wrong. They unreasonably cast suspicion on everyone without any good basis and reverse the accepted safeguard that your guilt requires to be proven, and replace it with the idea that you require to prove your innocence.
I guess you assume that because it's an African country that they don't have computer crime laws ?

I was just about to purchase $10,001 worth of services from them and have now decided not to because of the computer trespass by the web developer.
According to https://www.cga.ct.gov/2012/rpt/2012-R-0254.htm that makes it a Class B Felony.
Plus the prima facie tort for the lost business.
Are you sure it's such a good idea to go around looking for trouble like this?
There are plenty of legal recovery avenues without going looking for trouble and pretending it's just standing up for yourself - a defense which will go nowhere in a felony hearing.
<humor>There's plenty of opportunities for former members (e.g. USA) to re-apply to join in the post-Brexit world. One of the many benefits could be access to the BBC iPlayer !</humor>
I don't think an ethics committee would approve of exposing a study group to a known or suspected higher risk of death without significant safeguards.
Using a small sample exposed to the suspected risk and the vast majority not exposed sounds like responsible ethics.
It is not stated, but there should also have been additional safeguards and monitoring. It is normal for studies to be terminated early if they are found to expose participants to either too much danger or if the study group is found to be significantly advantaged (in which case, for example, the whole group is given the beneficial treatment instead of just the small study group).
50% may sound 'fair' or 'equal', but this is about researching ways of saving life, some social notion of fairness or gender equality is not relevant and, if this study is correct, could have caused excessive death. Is it worth people being killed to get the gender balance into the shape you prefer?
Isn't this the storyline to HBO's Silicon Valley ? Someone took it seriously?
Submitted because the fundamental problem was "an issue between mapping and command and control systems meant officers went to the wrong address."
A system incompatibility issue with serious consequences - too often people don't understand the risks associated when we introduce problems like that with version upgrades or switching parts of systems without considering the consequences.
or example, You cannot arrest someone for being drunk and having their car keys in their pocket, or even being asleep in the car while drunk.
Yes you can. In the UK (since we're discussing the UK, that's important), the offense is being in charge of a motor vehicle whilst incapacitated by drink or drugs. Incapacitated is defined as being over the limit defined in law (80mg in England/Wales and 50mg in Scotland - don't cross the border after a drink!).
Mere possession of the keys or being inside the vehicle [alone] or sitting in the driving seat is treated exactly the same as driving drunk. Some pubs will offer a 'hold your keys' service where you put the keys behind the bar and come back the next day to collect the keys and car when you're below the limit for driving.
When I was SCUBA training, my instructor made a point of telling everyone in the class :
"There are OLD divers and there are BOLD divers, but there are very few OLD, BOLD divers."
Every single time I had an issue under water, it was when I was trying something BOLD and it brought back the instructors words.
Martyn Farr's book [mentioned in other comments] is littered with examples of BOLD divers but when you look up to see what they're doing now, many of them are dead. Normally related to a cave incident.
You've made me think about this !
I recently had to pass between Canada and the US and I, too, was forced to enter a checkpoint where I was held by someone carrying a gun, who asked invasive questions about why I wanted to cross into a different territory and I had to satisfy the guard that I was not going to present any threat and that my purpose for travel was legitimate.
Like a fool, I previously believed this was a normal thing done by countries and that these were normal border policing activities at so-called 'border crossings'.
But after reading your post, I now realize I was forced to be subjugated by an evil oppressor.
At least, that is if I accept that an otherwise normal action at territorial separation points can be re-phrased in pejorative terms through re-naming of border crossings as the more sinister sounding 'checkpoints'.
edit:typo.
If you snore that badly, consider visiting a respiratory and sleep specialist to test for sleep apnea. That level of snoring is not normal - you should not be waking people with your snoring and if you are tired in the morning and being late for work, that's an indication it is negatively affecting your life (and that of others too).
Been there. Done that.
After a sleep study, I started using a CPAP machine and it totally turned my sleep and life around.
